Asante Kotoko striker Opoku: I learnt a lot from Messi

Asante Kotoko new kid on the block Kwame Opoku has revealed he idolises Argentina and Barcelona legend Lionel Messi, following his brilliant effort in the Ghana Premier League (GPL) on Monday.

Comparisons have been drawn between Opoku and Messi after the former scored what has been described as a 'Mess-like' goal during the fixture against Liberty Professionals.

He found the back of the net twice on the day, his two goals earning the Porcupine Warriors a 2-0 home win in the matchday eight fixture at the Accra Sports Stadium.
