Rahman scores late equaliser for POAK

Earlier, Yen.com.gh reported that Ghanaian defender Baba Abdul Rahman scored a dramatic late goal to earn Greek champions PAOK Thessaloniki a draw in their Europa League clash with Viktoria Plzen.

Rahman replaced Joan Sastre in the 66th minute as PAOK trailed by two goals following an explosive first half by the visitors.
