Former Black Stars midfielder Emmanuel Agyemang Badu, who is currently with Accra Great Olympics, has advised head coach Otto Addo on the idea of avenging Uruguay and Portugal at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
On November 24, 2022, Stadium 974 in Ras Abu Aboud, Doha, Qatar will host Otto Addo’s team’s group stage opener against Portugal, and on November 28, 2022, the Lusail Iconic Stadium in Lusail, Qatar will host their final group stage match against Uruguay.
For the majority of Ghanaians, these two group-stage matches—particularly the one against Uruguay—are crucial, and they still have to settle out with Portugal in Qatar for a second fight.
In a horrible atmosphere at the FNB Stadium in Johannesburg, South Africa, Ghana and Africa lost to Uruguay. For the first time, Ghana was eliminated from the World Cup in the quarterfinals.
The Portuguese referee, Olegário Benquerença, preferred to award a penalty to award a goal when Louis deliberately handled a goal in the latter minutes of the game to deny a goal by Ghana, Asamoah Gyan missed the penalty, and the game proceeded to penalties, and Uruguay went on to play the semi-final.
On June 26, 2014, at the Estádio Nacional Mané Garrincha in Brasília, an own goal by John Boye and a goal by Cristiano Ronaldo were enough even though Ghana’s Asamoah Gyan scored his fifth goal at the World Cup to consolidate team Ghana and eliminate them in the group stage.
In an interview, Emmanuel Agyemang Badu revealed to Otto Addo the strategy to make Ghanaians’ aspirations and demands a reality, given that Ghana will face Uruguay and Portugal in the World Cup in Qatar.
Emmanuel Agyemang Badu told Adamu Muftawu of Radio Gold Talk Sport, “I heard our gallant supporters and ourselves talking about revenge, but revenge comes with good preparations. Without good preparation, you won’t be able [to revenge], and I don’t want us to focus on Uruguay or Portugal because people are saying it’s because of Ronaldo and other people are saying it’s because of what Luis Suarez has done to us in South Africa. “
In a new football managerial ethics, the FIFA U-20 World Cup winner in 2009 lectured the head coach on how to accomplish successful revenge.
He emphasised, “Football has changed and we should move on from this and the most important thing is that we need to prepare very well and we need to prepare game after game. Preparations first, then we take it game after game, revenge? I don’t buy that kind of argument. “
