Amid some emotional tweets about the brawl that ensued at the end of the game, comes one of the funniest remark about the conduct of the Ghanaian team.<\/p>\n<p>Bushman on twitter says &#8220;if you can&#8217;t beat them during the match, you beat them after the march&#8221;. He obviously was making fun of the heavy punch fired by Benjamin Tetteh that nearly turned the pitch into a boxing ring.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/85fb794451af4f888493136485e9429c\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The reaction that followed this tweet is pretty interesting, as many felt the Ghanaian team had no other option to defeat their opponent after the draw but to confront the Gabonese for not being fair in the game. The referee created a scene on the pitch as he went searching for him with his red card.<\/p>\n<p>By then, Benjamin Tetteh had mysterious escapes from the pitch. Thomas Partey was asked to call him over to facet he consequences but swept off.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/361e34702ac14669aad9b1378e6804d0\"\/><\/p>\n<p>He might have escaped the red card on the pitch but he will be penalized severely by FIFA for his violent behaviour. It&#8217;s possible he could be slapped with a four month suspension from football, just to teach him a lesson.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ql-align-justify\"><strong style=\"background-color: transparent;\">Reactions from Ex-players of Black Stars<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A reaction from an ex-goalkeeper of the Black Stars, Fatau Dauda, on GTV made nonsense of the attitude of the Ghanaian player. He argued that draw could have been avoided if the player had kicked the ball off the pitch when their colleague was injured.<\/p>\n<p>He went further to say that Benjamin Tetteh&#8217;s action was totally needless no matter the provocation from the Gabonese.<\/p>\n<p>Ex-striker of the Black Stars, Asamoah Gyan was disgusted and utterly dissappointed at the poor show of the team in the final minutes of the game. He vented his anger at the coach too for having failed to effect some changes when there were obvious signs some players were fatigued.<\/p>\n<p>He argued that the team had a clear chance of winning &#8220;but they lacked focus&#8221;. So far, Morocco and Gabon are in lead of Group C. Ghana has a window of opportunity to qualify should it beat the Comoros.<\/p>\n<p>Content created and supplied by: Blind_Justice (via  Opera<br \/>\nNews )<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<p class=\"copyright hide\">\n<span class=\"content\">    ,  .   ,     .
