Ghana derby in Sudan: Okrah scores for Al Merreikh to destroy Razak's Al Merghani
27.04.2015 LISTEN

 Augustine Okrah was among the goals for Al Merriekh as they defeated Al-Mergheni 4-0 away from home in the Sudani Premier League on Sunday.

Okrah scored Al Merreikh's third goal in the 37th minute of their romp of the team coached by Ghanaian football legend, Abdul Karim Razak, famously nicknamed the Golden Boy.

Okrah who has been in terrific form for the Sudan giants in both league and African Champions' League, despite a lack of goals, also provided the assist for Al Merreikh's first goal.

The strike against Al Merghani is just the second league goal for Okrah this season but the former Bechem United goal poacher has been named MVP several times and arguably the best Merreikh player this season. He also has several assists for the season at the club he plays for alongside compatriot, Francis Coffie.

Meanwhile, Okrah and Team Al Merreikh travel to Tunis on Tuesday ahead of next weekend's Champions League return leg against Esperance for who another Ghanaian, Harrison Afful plays. Al Merreikh lead 1-0 from the first leg. Follow @thedonplato
