The Black Meteors of Ghana exhibited a scintillating performance to marmalize giants Zamalek SC by a resounding 4-1 on the mid-afternoon of Tuesday, June 20, 2023.
The game as usual, is to test the team's strength and how prepared they are for the 2023 Africa U-23 Cup of Nations as they look to make the final three and qualify for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
Romanian-based forward Emmanuel Yeboah got the Meteors explosive start to something fruitful after breaking the deadlock of the game in just 11 minutes from kickoff.
The CFR Cluj striker scored twice subsequently on the 25th and 41st minute respectively to complete a sensational first half hatrick. Bibiani Goldstars youngster Emmanuel Appau also found the back of the net on the 43rd minute to get Ghana's fourth of the day.
Just on the stroke of half time, newly-invited goalie who plays for Sheffield United in England, Jordan Amissah brilliantly denied Zamalek from the penalty spot to keep the lead intact
