Adomako is a regular in the Aduana Stars setup and has been a fixture at right-back for the club in the ongoing league campaign. Data from Transfermarkt shows the 21-year-old has played in four of his side's five Ghana Premier League games this season.

His sudden collapse drew significant concern from players, officials and supporters present at the ground, with attention momentarily drawn away from the game itself as those nearby waited anxiously for news on his wellbeing.

The incident has raised fresh questions about medical preparedness and emergency response protocols at Ghana Premier League matches, where swift intervention can prove critical in situations involving sudden player health episodes.

Despite the distressing circumstances, the Ogya Lads rallied to claim all three points in the encounter.

Coach Samuel Boadu's men came from behind to defeat All Black Stars 2-1, with star forward Stephen Amankona proving decisive, netting on either side of half-time to seal the comeback victory.

The focus within the club and across the football community, however, remains firmly on Adomako's recovery.
