From our football correspondent Uneasy

Player ratings

Jeffrey Annan runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 59. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match

Hasaacas tear Berekum Chelsea apart

Rarely has this fixture seen a display like it: 3‑0 against Berekum Chelsea, and it could have been more.

Squad

Abraham Kyereh breaks a bone — 26 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 26 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad

Tempers go at Hasaacas

Amos Ofori was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Words at Hasaacas training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Jeffrey Annan is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Thomas Acquah

At 18 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Player ratings

One of those days for Samuel Mohammed

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.15, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Yaw Acquah

Marked 8.00 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Abraham Kyereh

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Player ratings

Jeffrey Annan runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 47. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market

Kwadwo Kyereh asks to leave Hasaacas

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Boardroom

Pressure builds in the Hasaacas boardroom

The directors have stopped offering the manager public warmth. In football that is usually the stage before the short statement.

Squad

Godfred Yawson keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Hasaacas may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad

Tempers go at Hasaacas

Joseph Partey was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Words at Hasaacas training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Baba Ofori is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Player ratings

Edwin Gyimah takes the honours

Marked 7.47 on an afternoon he ran from the first whistle to the last. Whatever else went wrong, Hasaacas had the best player on the pitch.

Squad

No hiding place for Bernard Adjei

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Bernard Adjei, and the manager let it.

Market

Thomas Acquah is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at Hasaacas has been clear about where Thomas Acquah stands, which is more than many ever get.
