Felix Afena-Gyan made his long-awaited return to the Black Stars on Saturday
Ghanaian forward Felix Afena-Gyan made his long-awaited return to the Black Stars on Saturday, featuring in Ghana’s dominant 4-0 victory over Trinidad and Tobago in the third-place match of the 2025 Unity Cup at the G-Tech Stadium in Brentford, West London.
Afena-Gyan, who last played for Ghana 981 days ago in a friendly against Brazil in September 2022, came on as a second-half substitute to mark his return to international football.
His inclusion marks a fresh chapter in the 21-year-old’s career after a period of absence from the national team setup.
The former AS Roma striker was introduced into the game in the second half with Ghana already in control, leading 3-0 at the break thanks to goals from Jordan Ayew, Razak Simpson, and Mohammed Fuseini—the latter marking his first international goal.
Midfielder Lawrence Agyekum added a fourth in the 59th minute, taking advantage of a goalkeeping blunder to cap off a strong team display.
