Ghanaian midfielder Mubarak Wakaso became the centre of attention during a recent match after reacting angrily to a strong tackle from a Nania FC player. The incident, captured on video and now circulating online, shows Wakaso momentarily losing his composure following the challenge, which many fans have described as overly aggressive.
In the footage, the Nania FC player goes in with a firm tackle that sends Wakaso to the ground. The experienced midfielder quickly gets back on his feet, visibly upset, and confronts the player responsible. Teammates and match officials immediately step in to prevent the situation from escalating further.
The clip has sparked conversations among football fans, with some defending Wakaso’s reaction due to the nature of the tackle, while others believe he should have handled the situation more calmly. Many also questioned the referee’s decision not to book the Nania FC player, given the intensity of the challenge.
Wakaso, known for his passionate style of play, has had similar fiery moments throughout his career, though he usually manages to regain control quickly — as he did in this case after being pulled away by teammates.
The incident has added to discussions about player safety in local matches and the need for stricter officiating to prevent reckless challenges.
