Darkoah bags brace for Bellevue University

Ghanaian female midfielder Mercy Darkoah continued her fine scoring form for Bellevue University women’s soccer team after grabbing a brace in their 5-0 win over Morningside College in a non-conference game.

After a scoreless first half, the Ghanaian scoring machine scored two goals with Betsy Fischenich also getting a brace with Michelle Dolder completing the rout.

Darkoah scored the game’s first goal at 68:22 after a shot from Dolder rebounded off the cross bar and Darkoah snuck it in from six yards out.

Dolder scored her first goal of the season at 71:15 on a pass from Lauren Clark from 25 yards out.

Seventeen seconds later, Darkoah struck again on a cross from Dolder into an empty net at the Tranquility Park.

The red-hot Ghanaian female enforcer has had multiple goals in each of the last two games after scoring a sensational hat-trick in their 5-1 win over McPherson College last weekend.

She leads the 2014 Bruins with nine goals ahead of their next meeting against University of Jamestown on Sunday.
