However, the host levelled before half-time through Brazilian midfielder Lucas Paqueta before Duran netted with ten minutes left.

Meanwhile, during the game, Kudus almost made a goal contribution after spotting Tomas Soucek with a clever little piece of skill.

In a video shared on social media, Kudus produced a 'rabona' cross for the Czech forward, who failed to convert from close range.

Eight Ghana players in the EPL

Earlier, Yen.com.gh reported that Mohammed Kudus and seven Ghana players will be involved in the English Premier League this season.

Manchester City have won the last four Premier League titles under Spanish manager Pep Guardiola while Arsenal have been close in the last two seasons, with Ghanaian midfielder Thomas Partey playing a huge role.

The last time a club other than Manchester City won the league in the last seven years was in the 2019/20 season when Liverpool secured the title.
