AN 82-year-old Ghana fan has offered his granddaughter to Nottingham Forest striker Junior Agogo for firing his country into the last four of the African Nations Cup.

Agogo was mobbed at the host team's hotel in Accra after netting the decider in Ghana's 2-1 win over Nigeria.

Agogo said: 'The fans show me so much love.'
