Asare misses out on bronze medal at 2019 Sal Games

Joel Asare - Ghana’s representative in the FreeStyle Football at the first ever African Beach Games in Sal, Cape Verde, failed to live up to his dream as he lost the battle for the bronze medal to Algeria.

Asare, who is the flag bearer of Team Ghana at the Games, could not make it to the medal zone.

After the game, Asare appealed to the National Sports Authority (NSA) and the government of Ghana to support all sportsmen, since there were many sporting disciplines that were practiced by the youth.

He thanked Ashfoam, Allied Oil, Toyota Ghana and the Ghana Olympic Committee (GOC) for supporting Team Ghana to participate in the Games.

Asare said the presence of Team Ghana in Sal alone was great achievement.
