Liberty forward Latif Blessing reveals secret behind his goal scoring success.
Liberty Professionals wonder kid Latif Blessing has revealed that the secret behind his goal-king success was hard work.
The diminutive winger clinched the 2016 Ghana Premier League with 17 goals after beating off competition from Aduana Stars’ Yaya Mohammed who had 15 goals.
Blessing going into his side’s last game against Bechem United was trailing Mohammed by one goal but he struck three times to move above the Aduana’s forward who failed to score in his side’s game against Inter Allies.

Blessing’s three goals on the long run helped the Dansoman giants to beat the drop zone after winning 3-1 against the 2016 FA Cup champions.
“My target in every game is to at least score a goal. I will say my secret this season has been hard work and determination, so I thank God for that,” Blessing told Hot FM.
The 19 year-old silky player added that he is disappointed not to have achieved his 20 goals target.
“I’m disappointed but I’m happy because my dream is to win the goal-king but if not because of my injury I would have score more than that. But all the same I will say I have achieved that because in the FA Cup I scored four goals and I just heard that I was the leading top scorer in the FA Cup.”
He concluded: “In the Premier League I didn’t play all the 30 games, I played 24 games because of my injuries but just imagine if I played all the games I will get the goals that I wanted.”
