Ghanaian midfielder Ibrahim Sulemana has once again proven his worth for Atalanta, scoring a crucial goal in their thrilling 3-2 win over Genoa at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium, Genoa.
Sulemana’s impressive performance came on the back of his goal in the previous match, which secured UEFA Champions League football for the Italian outfit.
The 21-year-old’s consistency and skill on the pitch in the past few games have made him a valuable asset to the team.
Despite Genoa taking the lead through Andrea Pinamonti, Sulemana’s determination and skill paid off when he scored a stunning goal two minutes into the second half.
The goal marked his second goal of the campaign and showcased his ability to perform under pressure.
Although Genoa fought back to take the lead again, Atalanta’s Daniel Maldini and Mateo Retegui turned the game in their favor, securing a 3-2 win.
Sulemana’s goal against Genoa has now seen him score in back-to-back games for Gian Piero Gasperini’s side, and his confidence and form are likely to catch the attention of Ghana’s manager, Otto Addo.
His impressive performance away from home earned him the Most Valuable Player award.
As Addo prepares to announce his squad for Ghana’s upcoming four nation tournament (Unity Cup), fans will be eagerly anticipating the inclusion of the talented Ghanaian midfielder.
Sulemana’s impressive performances for Atalanta have seen him score two goals in eight league matches this season, a significant improvement from last season when he scored two goals in 21 league matches for Cagliari.
With just one game left to conclude the current season, Sulemana will be looking to better his tally and set a new highest scoring record in the league.
Having previously scored two goals, he will be hoping to add to his scoring chart and make a lasting impression in the Italian top flight.
