The 20-year-old raced from behind and attacked his opponent with a blow in the 49th minute of the game which his side, Eupen, lost 4-1 at their favourite Kehrwegstadion.
Nicolas Laforge, the center referee, halted the game and consulted the VAR team upon which he shown the Ghanaian a straight red card for his violent foul.
The offensive midfielder could face further punishment from the Pro League’s disciplinary organ.

Ocansey, who is a younger brother of former Accra Great Olympics playmaker Michael Ocansey, scored for Eupen last weekend.
