Ghanaian defender Terry Yegbe has been lauded in Sofascore's Team of the Week following an exceptional display for Elfsborg, who clinched a dramatic 5-3 victory over BK Hacken in the Swedish Allsvenskan.
Yegbe, formerly of the Black Meteors, showcased his prowess by playing the entire match and leaving a significant impact on both ends of the pitch.
His brace proved pivotal in securing all three points for Elfsborg in a back-and-forth encounter.
Responding resiliently to Hacken's early leads, Elfsborg equalized twice through goals from Sebastian Holmén and Yegbe himself, the latter assisted by Gustav Henriksson in the 48th minute.
