'S-e-r-i-o-u-s' striker Abrantie Amakye Dede has stated categorically national goalkeeper Richard Kingson's agility and brilliance will not stop him from hitting the back of the net when the Black Stars take on their musician counterparts tomorrow at the Ohene Djan Stadium in Accra.
The musicians are bent on avenging the 4-2 defeat they suffered at the hands of the Stars at the El-Wak Stadium last year.
DAILY GUIDE SPORTS gathered that players like Stephen Appiah, Laryea Kingston and Dede Ayew were 'caught' spying on the musicians during the latter's training session on Thursday.
The spying on the musicians notwithstanding, the highlife maestro, who will be spotting the shirt with the inscription 'Serious' has revealed that: 'I have purposed to outwit Olele. If he is dexterous, I will also prove to him that I have what it takes to strike past him.'
The Black Stars on the other hand have called the bluff of the musicians, vowing to teach the artistes the difference between the pitch and studio.
The rule for this year's game places the lyricists slightly ahead of their opponents. A goal by the musicians, according to the organizers, equals two- suggesting that the Black Stars have uphill task if they really want to win.
After arguments as to where striker Asamoah Gyan really belongs, taking into account his dual profession, the player has come out to clear the air saying, 'You all know I am a footballer, the singing is just a talent. Football has always been my career.'
Coach Isaac 'Opeele' Boateng will be the man in charge of the musicians, parading players such as former World boxing champ Joshua Clottey, Tinny, Obrafour, Castro, Kwabena Kwabena and Kwasey Pee among others, while Coach EK Afranie will be in charge of the Stars.
Tomorrow's charity game, put together by Gold Star Consult, is to raise funds to support juvenile football in the country as well as Kasoa-based Royal Seed Orphanage.
Fans with the ¢100 tickets automatically qualify for the dinner arranged for the Stars and the musicians after the game at the Alisa Hotel.
The game, which will see a musical performance by Castro and Asamoah Gyan, is being sponsored by Tyron Tyre Protector Ltd, Sidalco, Mosparker, Safina Drinking Water and Lucozade Energy Drink.
