Algeri thump Ghana in international friendly <\/p>\n
Ibrahim Sunday questions Ghana’s preparations<\/p>\n
Ghana legend, Ibrahim Sunday has said 2022 could be the year Ghana would end their long wait for the African Cup of Nations trophy. <\/p>\n
The Black Stars have gone four decades without winning the trophy they won in 1982, where they beat Libya on penalties. <\/p>\n
Sunday said the tournament that kicks off on January 9 will be won by one country and is hopeful that the nation will be Ghana. <\/p>\n
\u201cEvery country qualified for the tournament [AFCON] and the dream of every country is to win the trophy. The trophy will be won by only one country.”Edubiaseman FM.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s true Ghana has not won the trophy for 40 years but maybe this time, it could be ours.” He added<\/p>\n
Despite being hopeful that the Black Stars emerge as winners of the competition, the former Asante Kotoko player admitted that Ghana is not among the favourite. <\/p>\n
\u201cIf you look at the teams that are going for the tournament, if we shall be truthful, the Black Stars are not favourites to win the cup. <\/p>\n
\u201cBut favourites are not guaranteed to win tournaments.<\/p>\n
\u201cA well-prepared side, psychologically, mentally, physically and everything normally have the chance to win the trophy.<\/p>\n
\u201cHas Ghana prepared the players in that manner?<\/p>\n
\u201cAlthough the Black Stars are not favourites if they work hard with good training, they can win the tournament.\u201d <\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Ghana lost 3-0 in a pre-AFCON friendly against the current African champions, Algeria on Wednesday, Janury 5, 2021.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
