Ghana goalkeeper Joseph Anang Tetteh has been named in the League of Ireland Team of the Week following an outstanding performance on the opening weekend of the new season.
Anang was the standout performer and deservedly earned the Man of the Match award as St. Patrick’s Athletic played out a goalless draw against rivals Bohemian FC at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin.
The highly anticipated encounter attracted a large crowd and lived up to expectations in intensity, with Anang’s heroics proving decisive.
The former West Ham United shot-stopper produced a series of crucial saves to deny Bohemians, particularly in the second half when St. Patrick’s came under sustained pressure.
His sharp reflexes, commanding presence in the penalty area and calm distribution ensured the Saints secured a valuable point in a difficult away fixture.
Anang’s display has been widely praised by fans and pundits alike, with his inclusion in the Team of the Week underlining his growing influence in Irish football.
The Ghanaian goalkeeper joined St. Patrick’s with high expectations and has already begun to justify the club’s faith in him.
The strong start is also a boost to his international ambitions as he continues to push for regular involvement with the Black Stars.
His performance at the Aviva Stadium suggests he could play a key role for St. Patrick’s as the season progresses.
Below is the team of the opening day of the League of Ireland:
