Kwasi Wriedt grabs brace in Manisa's narrow defeat
2nd December 2024
Ghanaian forward Kwasi Wriedt delivered an inspired second-half performance, scoring twice, but his efforts were not enough to prevent Manisa FK from falling 3-2 to Amedspor in a Turkish First Division clash.
Amedspor took control early, with goals from Yilmaz Ceylan, Britt Assombalonga, and Bruno Lourenco.
Wriedt, a former Bayern Munich academy graduate, ignited hope for Manisa with goals in the 54th and 63rd minutes as they chased an equalizer.
Despite his valiant display, Manisa FK could not overcome the deficit. The 30-year-old striker now has three goals in 14 appearances for the club since joining this season.
The loss leaves Manisa FK in a challenging position, sitting 17th in the league table with 17 points after 14 matches.
The team faces mounting pressure to improve their performance as they battle to climb out of the relegation zone. Wriedt's form will be crucial in their quest for survival.
