Ghanaian Pair Elisha Owusu and Gideon Mensah Secure Ligue 2 Title with Auxerre

Ghanaian internationals Elisha Owusu and Gideon Mensah have achieved a remarkable feat by winning the French Ligue 2 title with their club, Auxerre. This achievement came after Auxerre secured a vital 0-0 draw against Amiens SC on Friday evening, sealing their promotion to the prestigious Ligue 1 for the upcoming season.

The duo played integral roles throughout the campaign, contributing to Auxerre’s success with their talent and hard work. Mensah, a left-back, made a significant impact with 25 appearances and two assists, while Owusu, a midfielder, showcased his prowess in 32 appearances, registering a goal and two assists.

In Friday’s crucial match, Mensah entered the pitch in the second half, replacing Ivorian defender Clement Akpa in the 78th minute. Although Owusu missed the game due to a minor injury, his contributions throughout the season were instrumental in Auxerre’s triumph.
