Niger star Victorien Adebayor has received the first man-of-the-match award of the 2017/18 Ghana Premier League season after scoring a brace in Inter Allies' convincing 3-0 victory over Bechem United on Saturday afternoon.

The nimble-footed player, signed from Niger top Division side Association Sportive des Gendarmerie Nationale Nigérienne (AS GNN), produced an excellent performance to guide Allies to take their first spoils of the season.

Adebayor opened his scoring account in the top flight with a beautiful solo goal to give the home side a 2-0 lead after striker Amonoo had slotted home the first goal. Adebayor scored his second from a well-taken free kick.

For his reward, Adebayor received a new Nasco Magic Mobile Phone in addition to a NASCO electronic shaving machine.
