Spezia captain Emmanuel Gyasi honoured after making 150 appearances for Serie A club

Ghana forward Emmanuel Gyasi has been presented with a plaque to commemorate his 150th appearance for Italian club Spezia Calcio. 

The Spezia captain made his 150th appearance for the Eagles in the Coppa Italia victory over Como, a game he provided an assist in.

Emmanuel Gyasi has been playing for Spezia since they were in the lower divisions, starring in the year they earned promotion to the topflight. He was the club's top scorer in the 2019/20 season, when they secured qualification, scoring the crucial goal in the play-off against Frosinone.

"Happy to celebrate 150 appearances with this glorious shirt. Come on Spezia," wrote the Black Stars forward on Facebook.

Last season, his six goals in the Serie A helped Spezia stay top with two games remaining.

Meanwhile, on Saturday he provided the assist for the opener in the 5-1 thrashing of Como in the Coppa Italia, after finding M'Bala Nzola in the 43rd minute.

Alex Blanco levelled for Como after the break before a rampant Spezia netted four times in the second half.

Danaile Verde scored from the spot before strikes from David Strelec, M'Bala Nzola and Daniel Maldini completed the mauling.

Spezia open their Serie A campaign with a home game against Empoli on August 14, 2022.
