Semenyo once again rose to the occasion when it mattered most. Reacting to an Erling Haaland cutback, the 26-year-old produced a classy backheel finish that ultimately settled the contest.
The strike earned him the Player of the Match award and also saw him become the first Ghanaian footballer to score in an FA Cup final since the competition began in 1872, according to OPTA
“Everything happened so fast to be honest,” Ghana’s Semenyo, who joined City in January, told the BBC. “It came straight to me and I had to improvise myself as quickly as I can.”
“I have never competed for trophies like this before, so everything is new to me. Hopefully, we can finish the job off.”
