Former Hearts of Oak star Charles Taylor was full of praise for Daniel Afriyie Barnieh following the forward’s outstanding performance in the MTN FA Cup final on Sunday.
The Phobians will be representing Ghana in the 2022/23 CAF Confederations Cup after beating Bechem united to clinch the MTN FA Cup title.
The rainbow boys successfully defended the title after coming from behind to beat Bechem United 2-1 at the Baba Yara Stadium.
Emmanuel Avornyo shot the Hunters into the lead before Caleb Amankwah restored parity.
On the half hour mark, the defending champions made their effortS count as birthday boy Barnieh scored the match-winner.
Reacting to the Phobians triumph, Charles Taylor likened Afriyie Barnieh to himself.
“Afriyie Barnieh reminds me of myself in my prime. The goal he scored yesterday was quite difficult for any player to score”
“The run and technique was excellent and if this goal had been scored by a player in Europe, he’d have been all over in the media” he told Angel TV.
