You said "A draw in that match would see all four teams on four points and the head-to-head results between the three would see Ghana and Mali advance". Are you serious? Everything about your statement is wrong and/or grammatically incorrect. If Niger wins Ghana is out (head-to-head). And if Congo draws with Mali, Congo is out. Illiterates like you publish on Ghanaweb tarnishing your country image!!

Hope the Stars gear up as if they are going to play Brazil and do not screw up the match with Niger. Always remember that an underdog can surprise. If we have to go home it will be too painful to see Niger send us home.

AGAINST NIGER...
WE CAN BEAT NIGER EASILY. THEY ONLY HAVE 3 DECENT PLAYERS. THEIR ATTACK N MIDFIELD ARE NON CONSISTENT. THEIR DEFENCE HAS LOOPHOLES.
DANKOWA, MOUSSA, AND CHICOTO ARE THEIR ONLY DECENT PLAYERS. IF U NEUTRALISE THEIR CAPTAIN IN ATTACK, AND CONCENTRATE ON NEUTRALIZING DANKWA N CHICOTO
IN DEFENCE, NIGER ARE IMPOTENT. AA SHOULD START ASANTE ON THE WING AND KISSI AT LEFT BACK. PERFECT TIME FOR AA TO USE AFFUL ON THE RIGHT AND
KASA ON THE 11. AA SHOULD START PLAYERS LIKE CLOTTEY, YIADOM SO THEY CAN BUILD THEIR CONFIDENCE GOING INTO THE QUARTERS. WE SHOULD GET AT LEAST
3 GOALS HERE. USE THIS GAME TO SHARPEN UR STRIKING FORCE N POLISH UR MIDFIELD. 2 TOUCH PER PLAYER, AND PASSING.
AA DONT START UR BEST STARTERS. NIGER KNOW THEY WILL LOSE AND WILL TRY TOINJURE OUR BEST PLAYERS. IMPORTANT TO SCORE 2 GOALS EARLY
N REST OUR BEST PLAYERS FOR THE QUARTERS.

Why only 3-0? Didn't we beat them 6-0 and 9-1 before? Since your logic is that we beat Nigeria 7-0 and we should always beat them by that score and if we don't do that it will mean Ghana soccer is on decline, why are you sett ...

The word is "decline" not "depleting" . What it means is that, the strength of our soccer is decreasing.

DECLINE- decrease in strength

DEPLETE- decrease in number

John Mahama and the NDC need Black Stars victory to calm Ghanaians,just like what the late Abacha used to calm Nigerians when he was bullying and stealing our brothers in Anago.

Coach Akwasi Appiah should now allow Kwadwo Asamoah to play the role he is best known for as an offensive mid fielder. With the Nigeriens we need such a person as he is not performing very well in the left back position.

All that is needed is skill and team work. God is not partial so please remember that. He would only reward the hard working and the team working team. Why do you think God should accept the prayers of Ghanaians and close his ears to the Nigeriens?. No pariality, says the God of games.

what does this writer meant by "generous refereeing"?The referee did what he supposed to do and I believe this should go back watch the game again.
