According to a report by TV3 News, His outstanding performance in the tournament won over many fans, despite the struggles his team, the Black Sharks, faced along the way.

In Ghana’s first match against the host team Egypt, Adjei scored three goals (a hat-trick), even though Ghana eventually lost. But he didn’t stop there; he went on to score two more hat-tricks in the games against Mozambique and Tanzania.
Against Tanzania, Adjei stood out even more by scoring four goals, and he added another goal in the group-stage match with Morocco.
With these goals, Adjei’s performance truly stood out in the competition, cementing his place as a talented goal scorer in African beach soccer.
