‘We Will Continue To Fight’ – Ghana Coach Keeps Hope Alive
Ghana coach, Chris Hughton is optimistic of the Black Stars progressing in the AFCON tournament.
The coach, speaking after Ghana’s 2-2 draw with Egypt in their second group game at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast, said; “It’s true that there’s a lot of frustration in the locker room. Our team deserved more, but football is like that. It’s frustrating. With a similar performance, we would surely have won. Two errors cost us the match. We didn’t take this opportunity to take the three points.”
But, to him, this setback won’t hinder the team from giving off their best in their next game and moving to the next stage.
“We will continue to fight,” Hughton assured the fans.
Hughton admitted the mistakes that the Black Stars made on the pitch resulting in Egypt’s equalization to secure 3 points ahead of Ghana which has a point on the table.
“Firstly, I would like to say that we love Osman,” Hughton said.
“However, I had to take him out because his mistakes were starting to affect his performance.”
Hughton however has kept his hopes alive for the next match against Mozambique.
“We are preparing for a tough match against them. The calculations are already made, we need a victory to pursue our dream and I know we are capable of it”, he said.
