Published on: 16 September 2019

Ghanaian defender Vincent Atingah put up an incredible performance for Al Shabab in their 2-1 win over Al Yarmouk in the opening game of the 2019/20 Kuwaiti league season. 

Atingah was impressive in the heart of defence as he helped his side record a slim victory at the Mishref Stadium on Sunday night.

Senegalese forward Ibrahima Gueye gave Al Shabab a deserving lead in the 36th minute of the game.

But Al Yarmouk equalised in the 51st minute through Wissam Al Idrissi before the Ahmadi based club grabbed a late winner to secure the maximum points.

The former Hearts of Oak lasted the entire duration of the game and was adjudged Man of the Match.

He was reported to have joined Al Qadsiya in the summer and even played one pre-season friendly with the club.

However, the WAFU Cup of Nations winner ended up at Al Shabab, where he is already winning fans of the club.
