“It was a proud moment for me and my family. It was a great opportunity for me; I thank the coaches for helping me to get to this point and I thank the gaffer for trusting me and giving me [the] opportunity to play. Hopefully more to come.” Rak-Sakyi told Palace TV
“I felt it went quite well. I just tried to stay calm, keep the ball and play simple.” He added.
Rak-Sakyi was born to Ghanaian parents in London and he is yet to represent England or Ghana at any level.
