Moro Ibrahim voted best player in MTN FA Cup

Moro Ibrahim finished the past season on a high after sweeping two awards including the Most Valuable Player prize in the MTN FA Cup competition.

Awards were handed out to deserving winners who took part in the 2011/2012 MTN FA Cup competition, Friday night in Accra.

The player who became the Cup final hero after scoring the winner for New Edubiase United against Ashanti Gold in August, beat off competition from club mate Abeiku Ainooson and Didier Kore of AshantiGold.

Though his winner in the finals was not selected for goal of the tournament, his strike against Danbort FC in the quarter-finals was declared the best.

Three other members of the New Edubiase United team won awards.

The club's duo of Abeiku Ainooson and Iddrisa Salia picked the Best Defender and Goalkeeper awards respectively.

New Edubiase United head coach Anthony Commey claimed the Best Coach prize ahead of Ashanti Gold's Yaw Acheampong.
