The attacker is now begining to show what he can do for the Hearts Of Oak team after a slow start to his career was awarded the Man-of-the-Match and his gaffer believes there is more to come from Salifu.
"Always I keep telling him when he gets the ball he should try giving the attacking and penetrative passes. We could attest to the fact that the ball he gave leading to the goal was a penetrative pass. I'm happy he has taken the advice i gave him," Samuel Boadu said.
