Mizak Asante plays for Golden Kicks FC

Asante produced the magical finish in Golden Kicks FC’s win over Mobile Phone People with the former qualifying for Division One League.
Mizak pounced on a loose ball and with his back to goal rotated 360 degrees in front of two defenders to wriggle his way out and then nutmegged another player to hit the bar line before shimmying the goalkeeper with a sharp right and left footwork.
He then poked the ball into the net, much to the delight of his club’s fans but to the admiration of the neutrals and opposing team’s supporters at the Accra Sports Stadium.
The video of the goal has gone viral on social media with reputable football websites reporting the news and lavishing praises on the teenager.
