Ghanaian midfielder David Abagna Sandan marked a memorable milestone with his first goal for FC Ordabasy, coming off the bench to fire the club into the semi-finals of the Kazakhstan Cup on Wednesday.The former APOEL midfielder proved to be the difference-maker as Ordabasy secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory over FC Zhetysu Taldykorgan in a tightly contested quarter-final encounter.Abagna started the game on the bench but was introduced at the beginning of the second half, replacing forward Magzhan Toktybay as Ordabasy searched for a breakthrough against a resilient Zhetysu side.The tactical switch paid off handsomely as the Ghanaian midfielder delivered the decisive moment of the match, netting the winning goal just three minutes after the break to book Ordabasys place in the last four of the competition.It was a particularly special occasion for Abagna, who joined the Kazakhstan outfit recently from Cypriot powerhouse APOEL.The goal not only secured qualification for the semi-finals but also marked his maiden strike for the club since completing his move.The 27-year-old has been gradually settling into life at Ordabasy and his latest performance will undoubtedly boost his confidence as he aims to establish himself as a key figure in the team.Ordabasy will now turn their attention to the semi-finals as they continue their pursuit of Kazakhstan Cup glory, with Abagna hoping to build on his heroics in the coming matches.
