Ghana Black Stars Did Excellent, NO BAD TALKS…

Andre Ayew

As I watched the game between Ghana and Ivory Coast, I noticed the black stars did pretty awesome and should not be blamed for losing the cup to their opponent. Both sides were good, and they gave their all, both sides had a couple of chances which they could not convert to goals, and in the end, they had to resort to penalties to decide the winner of both sides.

However, I noticed some mistakes. I don’t know why the strikers did not play first before the defenders, and lastly, the goalkeeper, or perhaps they were all scared of the blames. Another one was when opponent managed to miss two penalties in a roll, that was the perfect timing and opportunity for the Ghana black stars to emerge winners but they followed suit and also missed two goals which got a little messy resulting in the goalkeepers having to play to decide the game.

Therefore, I do not like the fact that some people would blame the goalkeeper for the slightest mistake because he did not make any. Yes it is true that he could not make a save and missed his shot, but even the players who were supposed to score missed, so why should the goalkeeper whose job is to just catch the ball be blamed for not being able to score?

Except those two mistakes and arguments that I had within, I think the Black Stars of Ghana had done a tremendous job and should be welcomed warmly with a standing ovation proudly.

And again, you should have realized that the coach did a great job, considering how he was able to manage the guys in a very short time, although, he may have made a couple of bad decisions but that is part of the game, if one does not err, the other would. So I think the coach should be highly recognized. You should have known also that, almost all or most of the Black Stars receive several individual awards such as; Andre Dede Ayew receiving most goals, Atsu receiving best goal and some other goodies.

To be honest the guys played their hearts out and should be acknowledged. Some people are already connecting the loss to the incumbent president. There is no such thing as because we have this as our president, we loss, football brings people together but not to separate. We should appreciate whatever result we get despite our differences.
