Black Stars attacker Yaw Yeboah netted the opener to help his side Columbus Crew win the 2023 MLS Cup on Saturday with a 2-1 score line against LAFC.
Yeboah, becomes the fourth Ghanaian player to win the coveted trophy as a Black and Gold player since trio Harrison Afful, Jonathan Mensah and Emmanuel Boateng won it with the club in 2020.
The Ghanaian international struck in the 37th minute to cap an 11-pass buildup.
He was on the receiving end of Malte Amundsen‘s line-splitting through ball, then sliced home an outside-the-foot finish past goalkeeper Maxime Crépeau.
Columbus Crew took the lead through Cucho Hernández on 33 minute mark of the game.
LAFC reduced the deficit through Dénis Bouanga after 74 minutes. This is Columbus Crew’s third-ever MLS Cup after 2008 and 2020.
