But in December of last year my mother, only 50 years old and my great supporter, also died. She accompanied me everywhere. By the way, she also played football, so I must have gotten my talents from her. (quietly) Before every match I pray for her. I couldn’t even be at her funeral, can you imagine how much that hurt Christopher Baah stated
