I personally think Eric Ofori is a critical player in the middle. The weakness was that neither Sackey or Abu were good in combination with him.
I feel like Rashid Sumalia needs to be getting more time. Boye had a bad game and Mensah was average. Afful needs to be replaced but I think the issue is that Yiadom is injured.
At the left back Lumor is excellent. His work rate is high. The experiment with Akiminko at the right back is interesting. I am not so sure if that will work out.
Overall, I think the team played well but we missed two goals. The Dwamena tap in and the Acheampong excellent cut in that hit the post.
Once again, it is the same old story with African teams on the international stage....finish chances. We create chances but cannot finish.
Sorry to say that it looks like the end of the road for Warris and Accam. I just do not see them scoring on the international stage. At club yes. Internationally, no.

Brother POW, I saw the match.
My view: But for a brief period in the second half when MEX owned the middle, we played better than The Tricolor and had better chances, but fluffed all of them.
Lobbying into the box and targeting should be improved.
Our players must start chipping opposing keepers when they find themselves one on one, instead of hitting the ball into the keepers' legs.
I do not feel embarrassed, because it was just an 0-1 loss.
But it can take a psychological toll on our players long-term, as the record now shows 0-1 (2006), 1-2 (2008), and now 0-1 (2017).
But I also know that when the stakes are high, that's when the Black Stars really rev it up, so this one too shall pass.

On the game itself,we merited a draw;it was unbelievable the work rate of our boys in such humid conditions.They were so confident in all phases of the game! No 22 was really really good and was a constant thorn to the Mexicans.
The left full back was a maestro as balls barely filtered through his end.
The Stars played real good and l cannot understand what Avram Grant did as a coach;where were all these boys all the while?
Granted the attacking game the boys exihibited, the Phaoroahs will certainly fall in our rematch.
A word of caution;Appiah please leave out all the so called "big names" that don't play "whooo" when fielded.One like Agyemang Badu and Jordan should be left out!

I like the team very much of how they attacked and defended together.
No 22 had to be held back by Asamoah Gyan as he aggressively confronted the refree.That would support Appiah's view of the officiating!I mean,the least touch of the Mexican players was a foul call.

Kwesi Appiah please no no no, your arguments don't make sense. Referees by their principles of duty are bound to play by the rules set out by FIFA, be it a league match, international friendly or competitive tournament games; their professional refereeing lincense matters to them than an unsolicited favour for his home country Mexico, he is more cautious in his actions moreso when there are cameras watching his actions and ofcourse thousands of spectators watching his fairness. eventhough some of them damn the consequence of their actions anyway. Kwesi Appiah have your bothered to consider if the match had taken place in Ghana; would GFA had to import a referee from abroad to ensire fairness.? Question is, why did the Black Stars not score goals in normal playtime once they are playing a team 'B' Mexican side. The whole world is aware the Mexican national team 'A' is playing a Confederation Cup in Russia as such Kwesi Appiah's concern should rather be bodered on the performance of the Black Stars and not the referee, claiming he is Mexican/American citizen described as American. Oooh No.!

No wonder he was reappointed the coach. He doesn't care to know and that suits his masters just fine. Clueless? Absolutely.
By the way, for Appiah and all those up in arms, there is always trash talk on the fields of play. Just watch the gestures of players towards each other and officials when called for an infringement. They are not praising their opponents or the referees. Appiah needs to grow up and shouldn't bring the bullshit, he used against Prince and Muntari, which badly affected our performance in Brazil.

Does it matter if Kwesi Appiah fielded Bodjuase 11, its on record the Black Stars played a Mexican team 'B' national side. How come Ghanaians continue to celebrate Accra Hearts of Oak side pulling a drawn game with the full squad of Nigerian national team in a world cup qualifier. The late coach Atuquafio stunned Ghanaians when he chose to field a club side with a crack national team that included the dreadful players of Sunday Oliseh, Amokachi, Babangida etc. What is now the difference if a similar scenario played out with Mexican team 'B' side and Kwesi Appiah is trying to run away with excuses of referee being a Mexican-American citizen who also used an 'F' word on one of his players, how did that affect the final outcome of the game the Black Stars lost. The hypocrisy should stop forthwith, it doesn't help our football to grow.

Can't we for once all applaud our own? We need to support one another. Kwesi and his technical team didn't do that bad. Read other tabloids and you will realise the good things being said about our performance. After all the team is being reorganised . We lack patience in all we do. Our team exposed the weakness in our opponents and they acknowledged and are going to work on it. Even if we had won people would have had something to pick and make negative comments on. Not all of us praised the team in 5-0 win against Ethiopia. We should grow up as a people. The world is leaving us behind.

For the referring to use an F word is something that needs to be looked at, this is why Acheampong was belligerent on the field. Instead of you stupid monkeys on here supporting your fellow Ghanaians you are here also vilifying them.

I watched the game and to be frank our guys were amazing to watch their set pieces was great our keeper was also good he does not panic and grabs the ball with confidence.Acheampong was a fighter and great on the ball but what deduced from his moves was that he is more of a play maker but not a striker looking all the real goal chances he threw away there was no way Gyan or Dede would have let all go unused.The talkings is alright but our guys played not just well but great but at the end of the day nobody cares who played well but rather who got the W.The question I kept asking myself watching the game was who is really going to replace once he is gone right now I do not see anybody yet they are all more of play makers and not tooo hungry for goals you always see the hunger for goals in Asamoah Gyan and Dede sadly nobody endures forever sooner or later he will be no more so who will be our next Gyan that is the question we should all be looking for answers also train our boys to quit complaining and just play ball because soccer is a manly game.Afful was also his usual self very great on the ball,I do care much about how others might judge the match but the guys were a dazzle to watch on the ball but nobody cares about the dazzle people care about goals irrespective how you get the W you could even see that immediately Gyan came in the whole game changed they were all on him because the world knows he can make laugh at the wrong time except that he will not be there for long anymore because age is fast catching up just as everybody comes and go.Kudos to all our boys and to the technical team for trying all the players including the local players.

Reporter, why did you use this starting eleven? "I used that starting eleven because when the U.S players get tired, then I'll bring in my star players," hence the fallout with KPB!
No case for bias officiating. STOP acting like Trump because the referee was supposed to verified by the GFA in advance. A person's heritage does NOT affect anything.
As a kid, anytime Kotoko lost to a team from North Africa some of accused the referees because they spoke with the players of North Africa teams to justify losing the match.
Fuck you is part and parcel of the American culture PERIOD!
I myself, I drop the "F" word sometimes to vent my displeasure.

You can't sit home and eat your Fufu and soup and go to the field without checking who's going to officiate the game. Nowadays we have google search and Mr. coach please do your home work well before the game. Also if you watch the game, you will see that Frank Acheampong always have to turn the ball around to his left foot to control the ball from the right wing of the field.So as a Coach you can't let your player shift on to the right wing of the field with his left foot. See how many chances Frank Acheampong couldn't make use of all the chances he got. This mistake started from the World Cup 2014 with Christian Atsu and this same Kwasi Appiah was in charge. He himself is right foot while he was playing on the left wing for the blackstars. Kwasi watch this mistakes but we love you as a Ghanaian Coach taking care of the team.

"F" word, "N" word, "BS" word: if you are an 'international' coach and the above words affect your performance, then you have no business coaching a national side: football is played over 5400 seconds, if you concede a goal in the 2040 second before half time and can't figure out how to turn it around, don't come telling us any "BS" about any "F" word. Top level Football or any competitive sports are played by hard and aggressive guys, adrenaline pumps the entire duration, and refereed by 'no-nonsense, sometimes biased mfs', so 'if you can't stand the heat.....'. You accepted the job and all of the above come with the turf, deal with it.

If they continue with this high level of tactical discipline and result orientation, Ghana will soon takes its rightful place among the best football nations of the world.

The players can't score goals,they're all midfield players. Ghana needs pure strikers
It was a clear penalty.I watched it
I think you're trying to talk to Owusu.
I did not talk about the penalty.
Peace!
Brother POW, I saw the match.
My view: But for a brief period in the second half when MEX owned the middle, we played better than The Tricolor and had better chances, but fluffed all of them.
Lobbying into the box and t ...

Appiah is right in his recriminations!I cannot believe how this guy officiated this game;he will whistle foul on fair challenges of the Stars and did not see the fouls of the Mexicans!He was a real "pinchi cabron!"

If Appiah and the GFA agreed to the Mexican Team B that probably was why the coach gave the others the chance to play. So Appiah too was playing his team B too.
If the ref actualy used the f-word on his players that makes se ...

Everything u r saying makes no sense if the referee is from Mexico ok why don't they use a Ghanaian referee a Mexican is a. Mexican period. He gat no business on the field they think we Africans t stupid u don't get it's
Who told you that, the team ghana played with is a team B
Jeans or whatever u call your dirty self. How can you insult the coach on this issue? You show you immaturity n uncultured behavior everywhere. Try to grow up. You are trying to leave your brain behind that your nasty head.
Chances...simple as that. Warris should have scored 2, frank should have just shot to center with keeper already diving
I think we played very well, we just couldn't bury our chances plus luck that eluded us. I hate to talk about luck but Dwamenah's me and you miss, which went off his knee instead foot was absolutely one of such I guess.

Yes, coach focus on the team let's build the offense that once put us on top. Remember the world of soccer has changed.
Guys, we need to pay attention to what the coach is saying. GFA is only interested in money. Once there was money involved, they did not care about who the referee was or the details of the game. Whiles watching the game, I k ...

Look, a commander does not send his or her troops to war without research on the opponents. Is Appiah saying he didn't know who the officials were going to be and the conditions under which the game was going to be played?

Majority of commenters here are ignorant of the real interactions in team sports.
Football-soccer is not "communion"!
Poor Akwesi is rather blaming the ref for his player's recklessness!
Oh, Ghanafuo montie!
Yes,and money they will make out of their commission.It was a sold out!
Hahahah ooh my gud Kwesi Appiah can't score group B team of Mexico shame ..people are just praising him for nothing
I WILL BE VERY HAPPY IF AKWASI APPIAH AND HIM TEAM CAN COME OUT WITH A TAPE THAT THE REFEREE USED THAT WORD AGAINST A GHANAIAN PLAYER.THEN WE WILL NO WHAT TO SAY. AS FOR NOW WE DON'T KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT IT.
Given Kwesi Appiah's story is true, how did that contribute to the defeat of the Black Stars and can Kwesi Appiah prove that with audio evidence even if FIFA is prompted to investigate the use of 'F' word on a Ghanaian player ...

Next time go to the field with your own Ghanaian corrupt refree , and they will score you more.
Childish whining he is fond of.
He should tell his dumb players who deliberately foul,

Kwaku, I think you are the only one that make sense here so far.
Yea, I don't care about the loss, the boys did well and I could see the determination on them.
Coach MRAA is doing what is expected of him.
Haaa I hope they continue like that against USA.
I'm really surprised at some some these comments. When was the last time we saw the black stars play this well with such energy? During the 2 or 3 years of Avram Grants tenure did the so called team A even play this good? We ...

Same thing KB told you which made you kick him off team, the ref told your stupid player, "Don't fvcking touch me"!
Coach, welcome to the real world!
what is real world about this .An illiterate and School drop our uses such abusive language and you call it real world .Shame on you .
You must be a cave-dweller if you think such expressions are "abusive" these days.
How old are you?
Ghanaians are on the Airwaves insulting one another every day. When was the last time you listened to your leaders? Appiah doesn't like the way some people express themselves when he gets out of his hole, he should get back i ...

De players did very well... Let build our team. Good luck on our next game
I watched the game.The players did very well.My problem with the coach is that ,he should have brought Gyan early in the second half and not when it was almost time for closing.
If this was a real game I would definitely agree with you. However, I think he wanted to see what Accam, Warris and Dwamena would do when a goal was really needed. i think now he knows that Accam and Warris are just not goi ...

The coach should focus on finding a replacement for Gyan. The boys showed much determination and brilliance. They only lack how to put the ball in the net!
Shame!! We played a Team B and we are complaining. Watch Team A play tonight!!!

GFA should have known better! The game with Mexico wasn't well planned, that's why a referee of Mexican lineage could be appointed. It's bogus!

Blacks are always robbed by whites so why don't we Africans ignore this games and have black to black sports.Bravo coach appiah
Go wey you, you lost against a second-string side. Shut up and and lick your wounds. Had your boys shot any of the attempts into the net would the Mexican referee say it was not a goal? Go piss, poo and go to bed
Don't mind him.
That was a STUPID tackle and foul in the box right in front of the ref.
When do we take "responsibility", hein?
Can't we for once all applaud our own? We need to support one another. Kwesi and his technical team didn't do that bad. Read other tabloids and you will realise the good things being said about our performance. After all the ...

God bless you Kakeman, we need people like your type in Ghana, we would have been better off by now.
The gods are working,go back home and the tell Nana to revise all that he said during and after the election and the magic horn he's hoarding inside his room if not !,prepare for another defeat against u.s.
Every goal that make Ghana loose a match comes through John Boye .Please ,someone has to tell coaches to stop him play for Black Stars. He is cursed.
you are a foooollllll to say John boy is cursed..when he scored against Ethiopian last match what was your comments? stupidity spitirify... gbemela full of hatred.. you will not succeed aboa bi ba.
Kwesi Appiah at it again ooh Ghanaians, he once said Kelvin prince Boateng used the f**k word at him during the 2014 World Cup brohaha.

am suprised our coach or the technical team of Ghana would say they don't know officiating officials of this match. as a matter of fact this should be of concern to the technical directorate before they even fly to US.
That was fanstatic display of football , gone were the days when one is injuried there is no competetive replacement, because we always played the best 11 , kudoos to the technical team

Which Mexico
Mexico I understand is playing in the confederations cup in Russia. So which Mexico team are we playing??
Coach Appiah should be praised for the great performance of the national team. They played well. Luck was not on their side besides this is just a friendly much
I agree with Kwesi Appiah. Right from the beginning of the game I knew the referee was bad.
Funny coach! The match was organized by both Ghana and Mexico. Please coach, turn to your GFA boss and his assistants and direct your question to them... lol
You are the coach, you know the procedures and what action to take, immediately your player drew your attention to it. What did you do right on the pitch? Weak Coach!!!!
All these people talking didn't even watch the game. Everybody saying Ghana played a Mexican B team. Ghana also played a B team. Ghana dominated Mexico but the officiating was very poor. Appiah was right clear bias. I'm excit ...

The Black stars do not score goals, period. No strikers to speak of.
The referee wouldn't use the "F" word against an American or any European but African teams. GFA should file an official complaint with FIFA to investigate the referee's use of the "F" word during the match.
Assume the referee used the "F" word, and that is only an assumption, what did the player do or was doing? You see players from underdeveloped countries crowding and touching referees all the time. Heaven knows what names th ...

The result lays bare the fact that Kwesi Appiah needs to build a winsome side. Stop the rantings cause you lost to a team B side of the Mexican team. JUST SHUT UP AND WORK YOU MOTHER FUCKER
Ghana outplayed Mexico!!
Appiah, the charge that you did not the referee is troubling. Please for the match against America do your home work.
The penalty was not a penalty.File a FIFA complaint against the referee.
Don't worry AA, win or lose, you're still the best . Love you!
Pls this is just a friendly match .it doesn't matter where d referee comes from. I never watched d full game , but d little one I watched after d match showed that d penalty was rightfully rewarded.
Do not worry about where the referee comes from, especially in a friendly match. What about if we had won? Would there be any complains?
