The Ghanaian centre-back lined up at the heart of the Swiss side’s defence as they hosted CKA Moskva in the final round qualifier for the Champions League at the Stade de Suisse Wankdorf, but it soon became a night to forget for the 22-year-old.

But his header needed a bit of weight to reach his goalkeeper, he quickly realised that and calmly turned around- now facing his goalkeeper- to head the ball once more, only to realise that David von Ballmoos was already miles out of his line and the header was placed beyond his reach with the match already in consolation time....

Her tweet read, in part, “Trump staffers planting stories in the Natl Enquirer…again?” She then included a screenshot of a message, apparently from National Enquirer editor-in-chief Dan Dolan, about a story the tabloid is preparing, asking Griffin if she has any comment.
