Atanga Scores A Cracker As Leifering Goes Fourth In Austria

Ghana Youth international David Doona Atanga scored a cracking goal to power Leifering to a vital away Victory at Wacker in the Austria second tier league.

The 19 year old attacking sensation took his season tally to 5 goals in 15 matches with solo finish is a 1-2 triumph away to Wacker on Tuesday night.

The Black Satellites attacker saw his impressive form across the 2014/15 season rewarded with a place in the senior side of Leifering at the start of the season but he has since returned to continue his development with Leifering in the Austria liga II.

Brazilian forward Jaoa Pedro opened the scoring for Leifering just 14 minutes into the clash before Atanga stole the highlights with a stunning finish to double the visitors lead six minutes into the second half of the season.

The pocket size dribgling sensation has enjoyed a spectacular season so far in the Austria liga with impressive outings across the entire campaign.

Remi Tekir pulled one back for the puzzled home side right at te depth but could not find that elusive equalizer to send Leifering into the fourth slot on the log and nine points away from run away leaders St Polten.

Raphael Dwamena, who is equally making a case for first team football in the side, came on for Atanga on the 90th minute mark whiles Lawrence Atti Ziggi misses out altogether for Leifering.

David Atanga inspired by Amartey"s move to Leicester City

Ghana youth international David Adoona Atanga is poised for a future move to the premiership after Amartey’s arrival at the King Power stadium.

The Leifering attacking wide man has set his sight on joining the ever growing Ghanaian contingent in the English top flight in the near future.

The Black Stars forward is enjoying a breakthrough season in Austria but has his sight firmly fixed on Premiership football as he continues to develop his career.

The 19 year old dribbling wizard tasked the teaming Ghanaian contingent in England to raise the image of their compatriots with commanding performances to incite more clubs into the Ghanaian market.

The ambitious forward relish the chance to flex muscles with the top notch players but believes it all depends on the current arrivals in English football if more Ghanaian players are to follow.

Atanga highlighted the arrival of FC Copenhagen defender to the King Power as a source of motivation for young players with Ghanaian decent.

“I am really happy for him(Amartey)as his move to Leicester City will move Ghana football forward. It is good for Ghana football and we now have lots of players plying their trade in good leagues.” Atanga told sports crusader exclusively.

On the essence of the teaming Ghanaian players in the Premier league, Atanga revealed the need for impressive performance from his compatriots if they are to open the gate wider for future Ghanaian players.

“If they perform very very well then clubs in England will start to look for more Ghanaian players and I may be that lucky one too”, Atanga concluded.

The midfield sensation was recently promoted to the senior side of Leifering but he decided to stay with the second tier side as continues to blossom in Austria. Atanga holds the record of the fastest league goal in the 2015/16 Austria Liga 1 to add to his blistering treble earlier in the campaign.

Amartey joins five other Ghanaian players in Christian Atsu, Baba Rahman, Jordan Ayew, Andre Ayew and Jeff Schlup.
