Following the conclusion of the 2023 African Games, Ghana Women’s U-20 captain, Afi Amenyeku, made a heartwarming gesture by presenting her gold medal to her father.

Throughout the competition, the goalkeeper played a pivotal role, featuring in all five games as the Black Princesses secured the gold medal without suffering a single defeat.

In the final against Nigeria at the Cape Coast Stadium, Ghana encountered a tough challenge. Despite an initial setback where Amenyeku’s error led to the Falconets’ opening goal, she displayed remarkable composure, rallying her teammates to secure a hard-fought 2-1 victory in extra time.

On Tuesday, March 26, Amenyeku shared touching photos of herself with her father as she handed him the cherished medal from the competition.

“One of the happiest men on earth right now. Witnessing AMENYEKU’s moment with the GOLD MEDAL. This day will always hold a special place in my heart. ALHAMDULILLAH,” she shared on X (formerly Twitter).
