Ghanaian defender Nicholas Opoku has been honored with a place in the Sofascore Ligue 2 Team of the Week following his exceptional performance in the French second division.

Opoku was pivotal in Amiens' recent draw with Troyes, playing a key role in maintaining a clean sheet at the Stade Crédit Agricole de la Licorne.

The 26-year-old center-back impressed with a 95% pass accuracy, 48 touches, 100% accurate long balls, six clearances, one block, and dominance in both ground and aerial duels.

His defensive acumen was on full display as he effectively neutralized Troyes' offensive plays, with his interventions becoming increasingly vital as the match progressed.

In the match's critical moments, Opoku's timely clearance thwarted a potential late goal by Troyes, securing a crucial point for Amiens.

Opoku's reliable performances have been a cornerstone for Amiens throughout the season, with his participation in 20 games contributing to eight clean sheets.

As he continues to excel in Ligue 2, Opoku is poised to leverage his form to regain a spot on the Ghanaian national team, the Black Stars, in time for the international friendlies in June.

His selection for the Sofascore Ligue 2 Team of the Week is a testament to his status as a leading defender in the league, reflecting the recognition he has earned for his consistent and high-quality displays.
