Defender Nicholas Opoku has received his Man of the Match award after helping Club Africain to beat MC Alger 2-0 at home on Sunday to reach the semi-final stage of the CAF Confederation League.

The centre back was a pillar at the back as the Tunisian side advanced 2-1 on aggregate. Opoku was making his third start for the CA since his move from Ghana Premier League side Berekum Chelsea.

He has been named in Ghana's 26-man squad for the penultimate 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Uganda on 7 October in Kampala.
