• St Pauli are chasing promotion to the Bundesliga, with the Ghanaian leading the charge to finish top of the league

Daniel Kofi Kyereh inspired German club, St Pauli, back to the top of the Bundesliga II table with his match-winner against Jahn Regensburg on Sunday.

The in-form 25-year-old Ghana international needed only nine minutes to register his name on the scoresheet after returning from international duty.

In a post-match interview, the AFCON star expressed delight after the win and insisted St Pauli push for promotion to the Bundesliga.

"It was a hard-fought win. We did it together. We feel good, the mood is good, and we know what we're capable of. We work hard for it every day and will keep giving it our best shot," he said.

Daniel Kofi Kyereh is having an outstanding campaign for both club and country, and has now scored six goals and provided 10 assists for the Bundesliga II leaders.

His absence due to the Africa Cup of Nations was a huge blow for manager Timo Schultz men, as they struggled to win games. They were on a run of four games without a win before the midfielder's return.

At the Africa Cup of Nations, he was Ghana's best player despite the team's general poor display.
