Baba Rahman Provides Assist As PAOK Beat HJK In Five-Goal Thriller

Black Stars defender Baba Rahman provided an assist as PAOK won a five-goal thriller against HJK Helsinki in the Europa Conference League on Thursday.

The Ghanaian set up the second goal as his Greek side came from a goal down to win 3-2 at the Bolt Arena in Finland.

HJK opened the scoring in the 36th minute when Hassane Bande headed in a cross.

PAOK equalised ten minutes into the second half through Konstantinos Koulierakis’ header.

The Greeks took the lead when Despodov collected a precise pass from Baba Rahman and fired home into the bottom left corner in the 81st minute.

PAOK scored a decisive third goal when Brandon Thomas slotted home in the 96th minute, but the hosts refused to give up and scored a consolation in the 99th minute when a penalty was awarded in the 99th minute which Bojan Radulovic converted on the stroke of full-time.

Baba now has one assist in nine games this season in all competitions.
