The youngster was a delight to watch as he put up a spirited performance against a star studded PSG side on Wednesday

Ghanaian international Kamal Sowah was very impressive for Belgian giants Club Brugge when he marked his Uefa Champions League debut against PSG in a 1-1 draw at the Jan Breydel Stadion on Wednesday evening.

The 21-year-old joined Club Brugge from Premier League side Leicester City this summer and has instantly been drafted into the team as a starter by coach Paul Clemente.

Former Manchester United star Ander Herrera gave PSG the lead after just fifteen minutes into the game with a calm finish.

Club Brugge, however, restored parity by the 27th minute through their captain Hans Vanaken against the run of play.

Sowah then set up two of his teammates in the first half but they could not send their last ditch efforts beyond PSG goalkeeper Keylor Navas.

After the break, Sowah nearly scored his debut goal for Brugge after he found himself in a good position but surprisingly smashed a rebound hige and wide.

With PSG having Lionel Messi, Mbappe and Neymar as well as other high profile names in their setup, Sowah’s performance was able to distinguish and brought him to the limelight.

Club Brugge will lock horns with RB Leipzig in the second game of the group next two weeks while PSG will welcome Manchester City to the Parc des Prince before club football comes on break for international football.

Sowah will likely make the Ghana squad that will face Zimbabwe in the 2022 Fifa World Cup qualifiers to be played on October 5 and 9 in Cape Coast and Harare respectively.
