RB Leipzig forward, Dani Olmo has claimed that Ghana jollof helped him score a hattrick in the German Super Cup final.
Olmo was the star of the night on Saturday, August 12, 2023, as they beat Bayern Munich 3-0 to win the Super.
In a video shared on TikTok by German-born Ghanaian Benjamin Hendrichs, Olmo was asked what inspired him to score the hat trick which he responded: "Because of jollof rice...Ghana bro".
In previous videos posted by Hendrichs, he addressed Olmo as his Ghanaian brother and thus call the Spaniard 'Kofi' an Akan name given to a male born on Friday.
After winning the German DFB Pokal last season, the duo in a video sighted by GhanaWeb, spoke Twi while celebrating their triumph on the team bus.
Hendrichs in a previous video posted on his page enjoyed Ghanaian jollof with Olmo and former Leipzig player Dominik Szoboszlai.
"So today, we have jollof rice from Ghana. Dani 'Kofi' Olmo, you like it? Dominik 'Kwame' Szoboszlai, you like it?" he said in the video.
Olmo, in response, hummed while Szoboszlai made a gesture depicting that the dish was sumptuous.
Benjamin Hendrichs was born in Germany to a Ghanaian mother and a German father. He has committed to playing for the German national team.
