Ghana have two and Congo one.<\/p>\n<p>Some fans have called for the sacking of coach Appiah even though he took over the side just about four months ago.<\/p>\n<p>Kingston says more time should be given to the former Ghana defender to rebuild he squad for future competitions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey should give him sometime to build his team,\u201d Laryea said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Already Ghanaians are not confident about our qualification chances, so I entreat them to leave the World Cup for now and<\/p>\n<p>focus on how Kwasi Appiah can build a new team which will become very solid in the future.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"related_articles\" style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<div style=\"clear: both; font-size: 90%; background-color: #eeeaea; padding: 5px; width: 60%; margin-top: 10px;\">\n<table width=\"100%\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\">\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:0; padding:0\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/96124592.jpg\" style=\"padding-right:2px;\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:0; padding:0;width:100%; vertical-align:middle; font-size:11px;\">Courtesy of <b>GHANAsoccernet.com<\/b> &#8211; Ghana&#8217;s leading football news website.
