Razak Simpson plays for Nations FC
Ghanaian defender Razak Simpson scored a spectacular goal to aid Nations FC in their 1-0 defeat of Accra Hearts of Oak in the Ghana Premier League on April 3, 2025.
During the game, there was a corner kick where the ball was headed out by a Hearts of Oak defender, and it got to Simpson outside the box.
The Black Stars defender calmly controlled the ball and took a long-range strike from over 25 yards out that went into the top-left corner of the post, giving his side the lead.
Hearts of Oak’s goalie, Kwesi Nketia, who did not anticipate such a strike, was unable to position himself well to make a save.
The goal, his fourth of the season, proved decisive as Nations FC held on to secure a vital three points.
The victory propels Nations FC to fourth place in the league with 39 points, while Hearts of Oak slip to sixth place with 37 points, further denting their hopes of claiming the league title.
Hearts of Oak have now managed just four points from their last five games, with one win, one draw, and three losses.
The defeat marked their first loss to Nations FC in their last four encounters in the Ghana Premier League.
