Ghanaian youngster Caleb Yirenkyi was among the scorers as FC Nordsjaelland secured a commanding 5-2 win over Randers FC in a Danish Superliga clash at Right to Dream Park.
The 19-year-old continued to impress with a solid performance, capping it off with a goal in the 60th minute to extend Nordsjaelland’s lead in the second half.
Benjamin Nygren was the star of the first half, netting a sensational hat-trick with goals in the 24th, 38th, and 40th minutes to give the hosts a comfortable 3-0 lead before the break.
Yirenkyi’s goal made it 4-1 after Randers had briefly pulled one back through Norman Campbell.
Gustav Wikkheim then sealed the win with Nordsjaelland’s fifth goal in the 77th minute.
Mathias Greve added a late consolation for the visitors, but it was too little, too late.
Yirenkyi’s growing influence in the Nordsjaelland setup has not gone unnoticed, with reports suggesting the talented Ghanaian is being monitored by several top European clubs.
The win further boosts Nordsjaelland’s position in the league as they chase a strong finish to the season, with Yirenkyi continuing to make a strong case as one of Ghana’s brightest emerging talents.
