Ghana defender Daniel Amartey is set for greater heights after winning a second consecutive Samsung Fair Play Award at the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations.

The 18-year-old, who is making his tournament debut, was selected by the Technical Study Group after the late 1-0 win over Algeria.

Amartey played in central defence alongside Jonathan Mensah and was one of the exciting players on the field with his decent tackles.

The FC Copenhagen player has justified why he deserves the starting berth ahead of some experienced international teammates.
