In a spectacular display of homegrown talent, Real Tamale United (RTU) secured a stunning 1-0 victory against Accra Hearts of Oak in their first match of the 2023/24 Ghana Premier League.
The man of the moment, Owusu Afriyie, not only netted the winning goal but also etched his name in the annals of Ghanaian football history with a story that reads like a fairytale.
Once behind the lens, Afriyie, a photographer, took the audacious decision to put his camera aside and embark on a journey to the pitch.
Under the guidance of RTU's coach, Abdul Mumin, the decision to harness local talent has proven to be a masterstroke.
"The believe carried us to were we got to we are also a developmental coaches we want to always grow people that nobody knows," he said.
"From the team you could see unknown players but they were in Tamale here we will still bring new players that people will not give chances.
"They have the top players in the country elsewhere expatriate coaches but the end of the day the homegrown players did what was expected of them,"
