The Inter-Toto Cup, which affords the opportunity of back door entry to the Uefa Cup, got underway last weekend with Tachie-Mensah stealing the limelight.
Tachie-Mensah, a member of Ghana's squad at the African Nations Cup finals earlier this year, grabbed a hat-trick as his Swiss club St Gallen romped to a 5-1 win over B68 Toftir of the Faroe Islands.
