    How could you lead by 2 goals and let yourselves down in such a disgusting manner?Thank you.

  • HANS 9 years ago

    The Black Stars displayed mediocrity in the taking of penalties. How could you lead by 2 goals and finally lose the match. Every professional player is supposed to master the art of taking a penalty so there is no excuse for ...

    It's a learning experience. Next time, you will work twice as hard. It's better to lose than to always win. You learn something from losing. Winners don't learn nothing. Losing build character.

  • anokwale 9 years ago

    I do not think it has anything to do with the coach. The players have just matured. If anything, Appiah deserves credit for bringing on Wakaso, Afriyie and Atsu into the scene.

  • A concerned citizen............ 9 years ago

    Coach Appiah, would have used Adomah 7, Rabiu at 6.if Kwadwo Asamoah[play maker]were to be fit at No. 3. Dauda in goal, Rashid Sumaila[penalty causer[.no.5 and to allow the best players to warm on the bench to become rusty. h ...

    Why do Ghanaian men always have to explain why they shed tears at certain times in their lives? Is it because of our cultural "barima n'nsu" attitude? Kojo Adu Asare also tried to explain himself away sometime ago. We shed te ...
