Ghanaian teenage striker Maxwell Boadu Acosty scored his 14th goal of the season for Fiorentina in a 2-2 draw with Juventus in the Primavera League.

The 19-year-old has been in sensational scoring form for La Viola and has been promoted to the first team rank by new coach Delio Rossi.

Juventus went ahead 2-0 up in the first but Fiorentina returned from recess to draw on level pecking.

Senegalese youngster Khouma Babacar halved the deficit on 65 minutes before Acosty made it 2-2 to grab a share of the spoils for Fiorentina.

The West Brom target outpaced his marker and raced inside to rocket a powerful low drive home.

Four Ghanaian youngsters were involved in this fixture.

Yusif Rahman Chibsah lasted the entire match for Juventus and Nii Nortey Ashong and Daniel Kofi Agyei also featured for Fiorentina.
