Ghanaian policeman.-turned-footballer 'grew up with team members'
Samuel Sarfo ' A dream come true donning the national colours' |
Just a year ago Ghanaian policeman Samuel
Sarfo was photographed guarding the country's
national footballers before an international game. Incredibly, twelve months
on, Sarfo has himself made his debut for the Black Stars, coming on as a substitute in
Ghana's 2-1 defeat to USA in Connecticut on Saturday.
The 26 year
old is also captain of top flight Ghanaian side Liberty Professionals
and combines his footballing life with his duties as a police officer.
He
told Focus on Africa's sports presenter Nishat Ladha that the secret
behind his recent success was that he grew up with the players he had
been assigned to guard.
They gave him advice on how best manage himself as a policeman and a player. This is what Samuel Sarfo added:
''It was a dream come true. That is the dream of every young chap growing up in Ghana. To don the national colours, I happen to be one of them"
