Herbert Addo Relishing Possible Final Against Nigeria

The coach of the local Black Stars Herbert Addo concedes a Ghana-Nigeria clash in the finals of the WAFU (West African Football Union) Nations Cup would pose a major challenge for his side.

The Black Stars booked a place in the semi-finals with a 3-0 win over Liberia ahead of their final Group B game with Burkina Faso.

"Ghana and Nigeria are branded as brothers but when it comes to the pitch, it's a different story. On Friday, I saw Nigeria demolish Benin and I have learnt one or two things," he told the press.

"We are looking forward to meeting Nigeria if the chance comes because what I saw is a great challenge coming from the Nigerian team led by [Daniel] Amokachi who I have always admired even when he was a player."

Ghana are looking to defend the title they won in the first edition of the tournament.
