On this day 14 December 1997 (Exactly 22 years ago today) Raja Casablanca beat Obuasi Goldfields (now Ashantiglod Fc),on penalties to win the 1997 CAF Champions League.

Both Raja Casablanca of Morocco and Ghana’s Goldfields squeezed through to the final. Raja won their group by a single goal and Goldfields by a single point. The first leg of the final was played in Obuasi, and on a dusty surface, Lawrence Adjei managed the only goal after 78 minutes, an aggregate lead that Goldfields held right through 70 minutes of the return match in Casablanca before Abdelkrim Nazir equalised.

 The match went straight to penalties and Raja, who had appointed Franco-Bosnian coach Vahid Halilhodzic to take charge of their side only months before, triumphed 5-4 in the subsequent penalty shoot-out.

Raja Line-Up: Chadli – Sabir, Fahmi, Rimi, Belmamoun (Amaddah 74) – Jrindou,Nejjari, Reda Erreyahi, Ogandaga – Moustaoudia, Nazir.

Coach:Vahid Halihodzic.

 Goldfields Line-Up: Nibombe Wake – T.Ahinful, Owusu Ansah, Agyemang Duah, Issah, Abdulrahman, Owusu – L.Adjei, Koné, Quaino (Naua Ahin Duah 41)– J.Okyere, Noutsoudje (K.Debrah 74’).

Coach: H.Addo.

On this day 14 December 2008 (Exactly 11 years ago today) Ghana qualified for the inaugural Championship of African Nations (CHAN) in Ivory Coast after they played out a goalless draw with arch-rivals Nigeria in the southern Nigerian town of Calabar.

Ghana qualified on a 3-2 aggregate.

The home-based Black Stars overcame a two-goal deficit to win a first-leg thriller 3-2 in the final regional qualifying round.

Ghana Line-up: Philemon McCarthy, Samuel Inkoom, Habib Mohammed, Ofosu Appiah, Godfred Yeboah, Daniel Yeboah, Jordan Opoku, Edmund Owusu-Ansah/Osei Bonsu, Yaw Antwi/Richard Atika, Agyemang Badu, Francis Coffie/Kojo Poku

On this day 14 December 1920 (Exactly 99 years ago today) Jack Dempsey knocked out Bill Brennan in round 12 for the world heavyweight boxing title at the Madison Square Garden, New York City.

The Canadian Press Service reported: “The champion proved to be Brennan’s master in nearly every stage of the bout.”

Some claimed that Dempsey knocked out Brennan with a rabbit punch.

The July 1964 issue of Boxing Illustrated had an article about the Dempsey-Brennan fight titled “Dempsey’s Toughest Fight: It wasn’t with Firpo—it was with Bill Brennan.”

On this day 14 December 1992 (Exactly 27 years ago today) Lennox Lewis was given the  WBC Heavyweight title, when Riddick Bowe refused to fight him.

On 31 October 1992, Lewis knocked out Canadian Donovan “Razor” Ruddock in two rounds for the number one contender’s position in the WBC rankings. It was Lewis’ most impressive win to date, and established him as one of the world’s best heavyweights.

 Sportscaster Larry Merchant declared, “We have a great new heavyweight.”

The win over Ruddock made Lewis the number one contender for Riddick Bowe’s heavyweight championship. Bowe held a press conference to dump his WBC title into a trash can and relinquished it to avoid a mandatory defence against Lewis. On 14 December 1992, the WBC declared Lewis its champion, making him the first world heavyweight titleholder from Britain in the 20th century
