Ashantigold midfielder, Eric Esso has revealed that he has been practicing free-kicks in his personal training sessions.
The art of finishing free-kicks has been difficult for most players on the local scene with very few being able to perfect the art.

Esso got Ashgold’s opener on the stroke of half-time as he scored a beautiful free-kick in Ashgold’s 4-1 victory over Berekum Chelsea.
Speaking to footballmadeinGhana after Ashgold secured a place in the 2021 MTN FA Cup Final, Esso revealed that he has been working to perfect the technique.
“During our training sessions last week, I was practicing it [Free-kicks]” – Esso told FMIG.
“So when the free-kick came up, I took the opportunity to score. So I thank God for being able to execute it” – Esso added.
