Ghana captain Stephen Appiah played for his Italian side Serie A side Bologna in their 16-1 win over Scandiano in a friendly on Thursday.<\/p>\n
The midfielder played in the first team as they thrashed the lower division side ahead of the weekend\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2s league matches.<\/p>\n
Bologna were represented by two teams with the Ghana captain playing in the first team that played in the first half.<\/p>\n
He was overly active boosting his hopes of finally making his debut for the club before the season ends.<\/p>\n

This is also massive boost for the midfielder and his country ahead of the 2010 World Cup to be held in South Africa which is just some few weeks away.<\/p>\n
The former Juventus, Fenerbahce and Parma star was signed as a free agent by Bologna late last year.<\/p>\n
