Football is watched and enjoyed by millions across the world with passion.
Depending on where you stand after the final whistle is blown, football can be described as the beautiful game.
But if you lose, it is a bitter experience that could leave you distraught, broken-hearted and you may even lose appetite.
President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo loves football and he is a staunch supporter of Tottenham Hotspur.
The president, like millions of others who were either at the Johan Cruyff Arena or watched on TV, could not hide his joy and excitement after the epic comeback by the English club against Ajax Wednesday night.
Lucas Moura
Tottenham’s Lucas Moura scored a stoppage-time winner to complete an impressive hat-trick which helped his team edge past Ajax on away goals rule.
The stoppage-time goal sealed a sensational 3-2 comeback win for Tottenham Hotspur, who were trailing Ajax by 2 goals – and 3 goals on aggregate. They were virtually kissing their Champions League final dream goodbye.
President Akufo-Addo, who watched the match in his office at the Jubilee House, could not hide his excitement after the match.
