Ghana 1-2 Cape Verde: Sports journalists fume after shocking loss at 2023 AFCON

[@jossmaan2839]

I am not surprised by the CV win. I have watched this tiny country's football progress, full of talented diasporans. The defeat I expected when you don't play well.

[@justinianoamado3980]

Most of the good one doesn't want to play for cape verde, they play for portugal. Look it up.

[@sadiqsuleiman1831]

It's not a shocking loss, it's an expected loss

[@edzico1908]

If you like bring Ancellotti and Pep Guordiola to coach Ghana there will be no difference. This crop of players are not elite bar Kudus unlike the Asamoah Gyan and Essiens generation. It happens to all nations.

[@inthahous87]

Correct statement

[@hervediedie]

The Ayews is the real problem of this team they are too lazy....By the way, Stop wearing Kente and Show off it is not a designer tournament

[@tochidan]

You did not watch that match. Or maybe I watchedcas a Ghanian

[@ejioforogbonna9272]

Carpe Verde won Ghana on the quater finals of the 2013 AFCON.

Am Malawian but I love Black 🌟s am not happy with a result

[@marilynlucas5128]

That Chris Hughton dude has to be sacked. He was the same manager that disgraced us against the US. I was shocked he was allowed to manage us at Afcon. You have Osman Bukari on the bench, a very lethal forward and yet we played only 1 shot on target in 90 minutes. No excuses for that dude. There's a reason he didn't have a job for many years.

Let's be honest, football has evolved. Improvement needs to be done on the local football, the teams need to compete on the intercontinental football ( e.g CAF Champions Legue etc). Stop relying on foreign based players, mix them with local best players and you will see the difference. The level of officiating has improved ( e.g VAR etc), no home ground advantage due to poor officiating. Hopefully, they will come back stronger on the next game ( Egypt is also struggling). The main focus must be in the development within the country in order to improve the performance of the black stars.

[@tochidan]

U did not watch that match. Am Nigerian, Ghana created opportunities especially in the second half. Mind you this is a first match. Many of the big teams will win in their second match.

[@JC-ty3zq]

I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW GHANA LOST THE GAME AGAINST CAPE VERDE ESPECIALLY THE LAST MINUTE GOAL DUE TO A BASIC DEFENSIVE ERROR.

[@joyjboy753]

The one who suggested we hire this coach should be blo😡

[@alexanderkwamina4746]

That Yeboah who was completely overwhelmed by the occasion, played like a deer in headlights. He's not nation/international player? And Gideon Mensah is too weak and slight for that position. He's making the same mistakes he made during the world cup.

[@patrickappau6233]

Oh, Ghana Black Star I think the team needs to lift up their game. I still don't know how we are going to qualify from the group.

[@mensahalfred1018]

Everyday this Coach have something to say after loosing is better we him and go for Legon City coach aah, we should rather focus on women's football team than this people aah spending money here and there look at them 😢

[@kofi1838]

I am calling for a ban on all international players, the local players are capable of playing at that level, Country Man Songo is correct, The Black Stars as a team are Dead. At this point I will regain my confidence in the Black Stars only if they win the tournament.

[@udkconsultancy5567]

well done cape verde

[@martynkingsley9805]

😂😂😂😂 How can GHANA loss a football game....Ghana is the creator of everything, but master of NOTHING, Ghanaians are the master of 😂😂 COMPLAIN 😅😅

[@may_beeharuno2195]

Master of complaint you say, don't you see the black stars are weakening day by day or you are blind

[@luisdossantos6553]

It’s not an unexpected loss, it’s a loss. Walking to the pitch thinking this is a lesser team, surprise surprise

[@Loveabounds.]

There really isn’t a team you should win never underestimate your opponent

[@user-pf7rm8zf2d]

The talking is Too much..

[@Khorakachi]

Ghana pls , we want u to blame Nigeria for this loss

[@inthahous87]

You didn't want to have a Otto Addo who was a trainer scout, you wanted an experience coach from premier league. There you have it. A coach who plays Ransford Königsdörfer from the beginning and does subs out Paintsil who thus far was the only threat. You ppl complained about Baba Rahman and want Gideon Mensah. Mensah is the worst left back ever he can not stop a ball or overlap his midfielder to put in a cross. Absolutely shocking. Denis Odoi has no pace. Schindler has to come in for him and start instead even tho he us not a natural defender. Bring back Otto Addo he was the correct man for thus job

The president of a certain country promised God he will build him a building, and the building is not done, and his term is almost over, so from the economy to soccer, nothing seems to be going well for that great country!!!
