Frank Acheampong bags 7th league goal in China

Ghanaian winger Frank Acheampong put up scintillating performance as he won a penalty and scored his seventh goal of the season for Tianjin Teda in their 2-1 win over Wuhan Zall in the Chinese Super League.

Acheampong, who didn't get a call-up to represent Ghana at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations doubled his side's lead in the 69th minute when he directed home a cross from left winger Rong Hao with his weaker right foot into the net.

Before that, the 25-year-old was brought down inside the box for a penalty which was converted by Brazilian Jonathan In the 54th minute.

Rafael Silva pulled one back for the visitors in the 79th minute of the game on Saturday.

The win lifted Tianjin Teda to the 7th position with 29 points so far this season.
