Dauda: Asamoah Gyan and I saved by last-minute Legon Cities relegation escape

The goalkeeper shares his delight on the club's ability to keep their Premier League status

Ghana goalkeeper Fatau Dauda believes Legon Cities' narrow escape from relegation from the Ghana Premier League saved his and Asamoah Gyan's blushes.

The two veterans featured for the Royals in the just-ended season, having earlier had stints abroad.

Cities, who went into Sunday's final matchday clash with Eleven Wonders requiring a win to beat the drop, registered a 3-2 victory to ultimately keep their place in the elite division.

"I’m supposed to be the happiest person, myself and Asamoah [Gyan] because of our pedigree taking Legon Cities to relegation, we [would have been] dead but God did it for us by [helping us] escape relegation narrowly,” Dauda said, as reported by Footballghana.
