Published on: 13 April 2021

Budding young Ghanaian midfielder, Ibrahim Mustapha over the weekend put on a masterclass show to will his club Radnicki Mitrovica, into a 2-0 win on the road to Trayal in the Serbia Prva Liga.

Mustapha was a strong presence in the game, showing great desire, grit and drive in central midfield. His clever passes into attack resulted in the opening goal in the 42nd minute.

The 20-year-old received possession in his own half, skipped past his opponent, surged forward beyond the centre line to dribble his way through two opposition players, then sent a long diagonal pass to Vladimir Petrovic at the right flank.

Petrovic found midfielder Dejan Jankovic to head the ball into the back of the net. Prior to the goal, Mustapha had created a gilt edge chance in the 18 yard box of Trayal that was blasted wide. Radnicki Mitrovica extended their lead in the 90th minute through Vladimir Petrovic to secure a 2-0 victory.

Ibrahim Mustapha has been involved in six fixtures since joining Mitrovica on loan from Red Star Belgrade during the January transfer window.  He's a product of EurAfrica football academy based in Accra.
