Daniel Opare has returned to action for Standard Liege
Ghana defender Daniel Opare stepped up his recovery to full fitness after playing the first half of a winter pre-season friendly for Standard Liege.
The 21-year-old damaged a fifth metatarsal in his right foot during training in October last year ahead of their league match against Mons Tondreau.
He played in the 3-1 defeat to German Bundesliga side Wolfsburg at their winter pre-season base in Turkey.
Opare has battled injuries since moving to Europe in 2008, a year after bursting on the scene at the 2007 FIFA U17 World Cup in Korea.
He signed for Real Madrid but injuries affected his first team chances and then moved to Belgium two seasons.

Another good player there like Dede and Jordan Ayew
Say it again Mr Nkrumah. It is very unfortunate the Editorial Board has failed and continue to fail in its responsibility to ensure this site is devoid of dirty material from irresponsible and uncivilised folks. What bothers me most is that Ghanasoccernet is also visited by foreigners both Africans and those from elsewhere thanks to the exploits of our beloved Black Stars. Suffice it to say these uncouth dudes are painting a sordid picture of Ghanaians. The danger is in the long run many decent folks will be less inclined to visit this site let alone make any contribution. Let’s pray and hope the Editorial board will take heed of your suggestion this time. Well done my brother.
Thanks bro. It is really a serious matter we need to pay heed to. It is very nauseating the kind of impression are creating as Ghanaians, and it is not funny at all.
Ghana don waya Egypt 3-kondo, as dem dey continue to prepia for Nations Cup
Dis na de fess of two ‘play-play’ match wey de Black Stars (na Ghana guyname be dat) go play bifor Nations Cup start, and de match bin too easy sef.
Egypt don win Nations Cup seven tines, but dem no dey go South Africa for dis year own and dem kuku carri playas wey dem for no hail, if no be say dia ogbonge playas dem bin dey tap ball for dia club, Al Ahly, for Saudi Arabia.
Ghana sha, jus name dia 23 playa wey go enta South Africa, and na Agyemang Badu, Boakye Yiadom and Asamoah Gyan bin score for dem, for de match wey dem play for Zayed Sports City stadium inside Abu Dhabi on Thursday nite.
Ghana bin start de match wit playa wey neva too tap for dem, but na dem still show skills pass, even tho Egypt bin try show diasef small.
Time jus dey reach 17minit, wen Ghana playa, Mubarak Wakaso, nasa beta freekick inside Egypt box. Emmanuel Agyemang Badu na im fess reach am, and hin header be like bullet wey Egypt goalie, Ahmed El Shennawy, no fit catch lailai. De goal na Agyemang numba 5, since he start to dey tap ball for Ghana.
Ghana goalie, Fatai Dauda, bin catch ball small sha, as Egypt (na Pharaohs be dia guyname) dey try do ‘pass-pass’.
Ghana midfilda, Anthony Annan, na im be skippo for de match, and he bin wound small around 30minit, bifor Derek boateng kukuma enta for am. Boateng come start to shoe hinsef for de match.
Emmanuel Clottey sef bin comot as second haf wan start, and de tin shock all man, sake of say, na im dey show hinsef pass for training, but nobodi see hin acivity for match. Like say Ghana coachi bin sabi, he comot Clotttey, come put Richmond-Boakye Yiadom, and de guyman neva even siddon bifor hinsef come score as time reach 54minit for match.
Yiadom dey play hin club futbal for Sassuolo (inside Italy. Abi na Italo dem dey call am for una area too?) and he disturb El Shennawy sotay, de goalie no fit clear ball well. De ball reach reach Kwadwo Asamoah and he dribble two playa, come pass de ball give Yiadom to score easy goal.
Egypt coachi dem come vex, change many playa, but all na banza, becos Ghana still dey show demsef. Ghana coachi, Kwesi Appiah, come change hin own sef, as he carri Solomon Asante, Christian Atsu, Richard Kissi-Boateng and Asamoah Gyan enta de match.
Na Gyan come kukuma finish Egypt. Christian Atsu colet ball for midfild, use Egypt playa, Omar Gaber, take play koso, bifor he troway ogbonge pass for Gyan. Egypt dey halla offside, but refree no gree and Gyan jus place ball inside net to make am 3-kondo.
Na so match finish, but Ghana coachi, Kwesi Appiah, no hail hinsef. He still tok say Ghana musto tap ball pass dis one if dem wan carri Nations Cup.
