Ghanaian youth forward Ema Boateng scored the match-winner for Helsingborg IF as they defeated Falkenbergs 3-2 in the Swedish top-flight on Saturday evening. 

He has now scored twice from his last two games for Helsingborg in the Swedish top-flight.

The 21-year-old former Right to Dream Academy graduate climbed off the bench in the 77th minute to replace Togolese international Atakora Lalawele and he netted the winner for  Henrik Larsson's side at the Falkenbergs IP.

Falkenbergs appeared to have earned a point from the game after Gustaf Nilsson had pecked the scoring after Darijan Bojanic had scored twice to put Helsingborg ahead.

But Boateng emerged with a moment of magic as he scored the match-winner to restore Helsingborg to their winning run.

He has now scored four goals in the season for Helsingborg.

His former Right to Dream team-mate Enock Kwakwa also came off the bench to play for the vanquished while forward Godsway Donyoh was unused by them.
