African stars help Columbus Crew win 2020 MLS Cup
Ghana's Emmanuel Boateng, Jonathan Mensah, and Harrison Afful alongside Nigeria's Fanendo Adi and Morocco's Youness Mokhtar have won the 2020 Major League Soccer Cup with Columbus Crew after their 3-0 victory over Seattle Sounders.
Caleb Porter's side ended their 2020 season on a high, a week after they defeated New England Revolution 1-0 to win the Easter Conference play-offs.
Ghana left-back Afful got the hosts off to a flying start at Mapfre Stadium by assisting Lucas Zelarayan for the opening goal in the 25th minute. Derick Etienne doubled the lead for the Crew in the 31st minute as Zelarayan bagged his brace eight minutes from full-time.
