The Africa XI beat the World XI 4-2 in an entertaining encounter at Micheal Essien's Game of Hope and Inspiration in Ghana on Saturday afternoon. The game was played in the Ghanaian capital Accra on Saturday 8th June, to help raise funds to support underprivileged children in Ghana through the building of local projects in rural communities.
Ghana's own Michael Essien, Jayjay Okocha, Adebayor, as well as the rest of the Black Stars of Ghana team made up the Africa XI squad.
African football legend and former Super Eagles player Jay-Jay Okocha showed his brilliance as he unleashed a dipping volley that dropped just over the bar. The Nigerian was also keen to show he had retained his box of tricks despite his retirement.
