Ghanaian youth forward Patrick Twumasi has lifted the Kazakhstan Super Cup after playing a crucial role to help his club - Astana FC defeat Ibrahim Moro's Kairat FC 3-2 on penalties. 

The 20-year-old lasted the entire regulation minutes and played additional 9 minutes of extra-time until he was replaced as normal time ended scoreless.

While Twumasi was playing the entire minutes Astana, midfielder Moro who was a member of Ghana's provisional squad for the 2015 AFCON and joined Kairat from Swedish side AIK Solna, did not make their squad for the game.
