The country’s total defensive performance has been perceived as abysmal and the former Ghana international is worried about the side’s ‘rigid’ style of play.
“Our defense is a huge problem. They are not flexible at all. They are too rigid for my liking,” he said “In this modern era, you need players who are flexible but we lack that in the team at the moment.
“They need to change their style because our defense can cause us if we don’t do something drastic about it.
Asamoah Gyan opened the scoring for the Black Stars but captain Ibrahima Traore pulled the sensational equalizer.
