Asante Kotoko: Fabio Gama dedicates goal against Bechem United to pregnant wife

Kumasi Asante Kotoko playmaker, Fabio Gama, has dedicated his goal against Bechem United to his pregnant wife.

The Brazilian was on the scoresheet on Wednesday in the Porcupine Warriors' 4-0 win over the Hunters.

Gama powered in a close-range drive for Kotoko’s second goal.

Last month, Gama took to social media to confirm his wife was pregnant and expecting a second child.

After scoring his second goal in successive games, Gama celebrated by putting the ball up his shirt to imitate pregnancy.

In the post-match interview, the Brazilian revealed the celebration was in honour of his wife.

“I want to dedicate this goal to my wife and my new [unborn] baby and I want to thank Jesus for this opportunity in my life,” he said.

Gama scored his first goal for the club in the 1-1 draw against Eleven Wonders last weekend before following that up with another neat finish in the win against Bechem.

• What next?

The 28-year-old will be hoping to continue his fine form when they host Berekum Chelsea at the Obuasi Len Clay Stadium in the matchday 19 games.
