GHANASoccernet.com announces Ishmael Yartey as Man-of-the-Week after his impressive display claimed the points for FC Servette in the Swiss top-flight.

He claims the title from New Edubiase United striker Emmanuel Baffour who won the award last week.

The 22-year-old former Ghana U17 highlighted his impressive form in the season by scoring an added time winner for Servette to end their six-match winless run.

Yartey was a torn in the flesh of Young Boys' defenders and had a legitimate penalty appeal ignored by centre referee Stephan Klossner and also hit the crossbar during the course of play.

With Andre Ayew ruled out of Ghana's World Cup and Nations Cup qualifiers in June, the Benfica loanee's impressive form could see him walk into coach Kwesi Appiah's squad.

He set an 8-goal target for the season and he scored seven with four games still left to go.

GHANASoccernet.com salutes Ishmael Yartey for his heroics for Servette over the weekend and named him the most outstanding performer of the weekend.

Meanwhile Emmanuel Baffour's magic was at work as Hearts of Oak fell to his prowess.

Christian Atsu Twasam was also sublime for Rio Ave as he scored the opener against SL Benfica.

Razak Nuhu set up the only for Stromsgodset as they beat Lillestrom 1-0.

Michael Essien's form against QPR cannot go without commendation.

The 29-year-old was at his best as he kept the supplies flowing for Chelsea to destroy Queens Park Rangers 6-1 at the Stamford Bridge.
