Kofi Amankwaa; Ghanaian youngster makes La Liga debut

Ghanaian youngster Kofi Amankwaa finally made his La Liga debut after a second-half cameo for Getafe in their defeat 5-2 to Barcelona on Thursday evening.

The 19-year-old defender replaced Marc Cucurella at the start of the second half with Getafe down by three goals to one, following a Lionel Messi first-half brace and an own goal from Sofian Chakla. Getafe’s consolation was an own goal by Clement Lenglet.

Amankwaa’s did very little to salvage Getafe’s fate as two late goals from Ronald Araujo and Antoine Griezman deflated hopes of any major comeback.

The Ghanaian defender’s performance on his debut could pave way for more playtimes following a swashbuckling display.

Compatriot Sabit Abdulai was also introduced in the second half as he continues to make headway in Spain.
