Albanian side pay tribute to Raphael Dwamena after first league win in 89yrs

Albanian side, Egnatia, paid tribute to late Ghanaian international, Raphael Dwamena following their league win over the weekend.

Egnatia beat Partizani in the playoff final to win the Albanian Super League for the first time in their 89 years of existence.

Following their triumph, the players of Egnatia held up Dwamena’s shirt in remembrance of the forward while others had an artistic work to celebrate the former Black Stars forward.

Dwamena lost his life in November following his collapse on the pitch while playing for the Albanian side in a league game.

The 28-year-old lost consciousness in the 23rd minute during the league match between his side Egnatia and Partizani and was immediately taken to the hospital.

Dwamena, however, did not survive upon arrival at the hospital leading to the unfortunate incident.
