Former Hearts of Oak captain Amankwah Mireku has heaped praise on Razak Simpson after the Nations FC defender scored a spectacular goal against his former club in their midweek clash.
Simpson’s stunning strike was decisive as Nations FC edged Hearts of Oak 1-0 at the Tuba Astroturf on Thursday, April 3, 2025. The defender’s goal, a breathtaking long-range effort, left local football enthusiasts in awe.
Speaking about the goal, Mireku did not hold back in his admiration, suggesting it could go down as one of the greatest in recent history.
“Razak Simpson’s goal could be the goal of the season, and if we take it back a little bit, it could even be the goal of the decade. Fantastic goal,” Mireku told GhanaSportsPage.com
Simpson’s goal adds to the growing highlight reel of the Ghana Premier League season, further proving the league’s ability to produce world-class moments.
For Hearts of Oak, the defeat extends their poor run of form, putting pressure on head coach Abubakar Ouattara to turn things around as the title race intensifies. Meanwhile, Nations FC continues to climb the table as they go third while Hearts drop to 6th.
