The man who recently deposed long-time number one Kingson superbly stopped Alexandre Pato's late header before twice stopping a Ronaldinho free-kick in the dying moments.

Kwarasey has been touted for greatness but he believes the guidance and tutorials Kingson will power his ambitions to be a great goalkeeper.

"He is a legend in Ghanaian football so I have a lot to learn from him," Kwarasey said.

"Just to play with him and to be on the same team with him is a great experience for me.

"So that will also change me as a goalkeeper because he has been through a lot and so I have a lot to learn from him."

The Stromsgodset ace is expected to maintain his position in next month's double decker against Sudan and Nigeria.
