Ghana international Nana Kwesi Asare has made a goal scoring return to the Gent first team in the Belgian toplight, dedicating his strike to the club's physiotherapist.

The 30-year-old left-back has been out of action since the start of the season, but he climbed off the bench to score a stoppage-time equalizer in a 2-2 draw with Anderlecht.

"After my goal I ran straight into the arms of Matti ( Mortier , the physiotherapist). All my rehabilitation I spent with him , we worked very hard, and I am very grateful to him for everything he has done for me," he said.

"I 'm not at the top level , but step by step I 'm getting there . My goal? (Laughs) I do not know how I hit the ball , but it went very nicely. That goal led to the entire team for a relief. It was deserved ."
