Ghanaian midfielder Baba Alhassan started the Romanian Liga 1 season in a spectacular note after scoring a brace for newcomers Hermannstadt against Mioveni.
The 22-year-old was on target two times in five minutes as Hermannstadt thrashed Mioveni 3-0 at the Stadionul Gaz Metan.
Daniel Paraschiv shot his side ahead in the 28th minute before a starring display by Alhassan in the second half gave the host all three points.
Alhassan was first sent through by Petrișor Ionuț Petrescu with a defense-splitting pass and the Ghanaian rounded off Mioveni’s goalie before coolly slotting home in the 62nd minute.
He doubled his tally five minutes later after a good control in the box before smashing it into the net.
The former Real Valladolid U19 player’s display earned him the matchday 1 Man of the Match.
