Ghanaian international Michael Baidoo showcased his brilliance for Elfsborg, scoring a remarkable brace in their intense 4-5 defeat to FC Copenhagen at the Estadio Algarve during the weekend’s Atlantic Cup.
The Atlantic Cup serves as a pre/mid-season football tournament held in Algarve, Portugal, catering to European football clubs from national leagues that do not operate in the winter months.
Predominantly featuring teams from Scandinavia, Northern, and Central Europe, the competition witnessed a high-scoring encounter with a total of nine goals.
Baidoo, an enterprising forward, played a pivotal role, finding the back of the net on two occasions, precisely in the 29th and 50th minutes of the game.
Despite his impressive performance, Elfsborg, also known as the Elegants, is yet to secure a win after two matches in the ongoing Atlantic Cup, placing them at the bottom of the log with no points.
The next challenge for the Yellow Ones is set against Danish giants Silkeborg IF on February 9, 2024, as they aim to turn the tide in the competition.
