VIDEO: Fans gather in Nima to watch Mohammed Kudus in West Ham vs Chelsea game
Supporters of Ghanaian midfielder Mohammed Kudus gathered in his hometown Nima, to watch him play for West Ham United in their game against Chelsea on Monday evening.
The Black Stars midfielder was handed another starting role and played the entire game as the Hammers were beaten 2-1 at Stamford Bridge despite taking a first half lead.
Although Kudus was not on the scoresheet, he forced Levi Colwill to make the mistake which led to the opener from Jarrod Bowen.
The fans who were watching from a little corner in Nima, a suburb of Accra, applauded the attacking midfielder and hoped he could have also found the back of the net.
However, a second half leveller from substitute Pedro Neto and an own-goal from Aaron Wan-Bissaka left the Hammers returning to the London Olympic Stadium without a point.
Kudus is an inspiring figure in Nima, giving young kids hopes of making it from the slums of Accra.
This season, the Right to Dream Academy graduate has been decent, scoring three goals and delivering one assist in the Premier League.
