Yohan Boli’s double fires Al Rayyan past Kodjia’s Al Gharafa

Cote d’Ivoire international Yohan Boli opened his goal account in the 2020-21 campaign with a brace as Al Rayyan breezed past Al Gharafa 3-1 in Monday’s Qatar Stars League fixture.

Having failed to find the net against Al Sailiya in their opening game of the season – which ended in a 1-1 draw, the striker found the net twice as the Lions secured all points at stake inside Thani bin Jassim Stadium.

The 26-year-old gave Diego Aguirre’s men a 26th minute lead thanks to an assist from Cameroon international Franck Kom.

Boli doubled his side’s lead in the 71st minute after beating goalkeeper Qasem Burhan with the assist credited Algeria international Yacine Brahimi.
