Ghanaian striker Benjamin Bernard Boateng was the hero for his Egyptian side Al Ittihad as he scored a brace on Tuesday night in the 4-3 defeat to Future FC.

The Ghanaian youngster who joined the Egyptian side at the start of last season from Elmina Sharks grabbed a brace but it was not enough for his side.

He was a second half substitute and made an instant impact after coming on in their match day 19 clash.

The Ghanaian striker scored his first goal barely three minutes after his introduction and  added his second goal six minutes later.

His brace was not enough as  Future FC scored three goals in  the first  half before adding another in the second period.

Benjamin Bernard Boateng now has three goals and two assists to his name after making 14 appearances.
