“We had a very difficult group but we qualified. I think we failed to convert our chances against Tunisia."
“It was a difficult game though but if you look at the chances Ghana had, every team will take advantage of that but we failed to do that."
“Penalty shootout is a 50-50 game. It is everybody’s game but we were unfortunate."
