Genk winger, Joseph Paintsil, says he is not under pressure to score against Madagascar in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers.<\/p>\n

The four-time African champions\u00a0will be hosted\u00a0at the Mahamasina Municipal Stadium in Antananarivo in the matchday five games of the qualifiers on Sunday, June 18.<\/p>\n

Speaking at a press conference on Tuesday, Paintsil said they will work together as a team to get the needed result.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

When asked if he is under pressure to score because of the number of goals he has scored for Genk in the just-concluded season, he replied, \u201cFor me, I\u2019m not under pressure to score or assist.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy style of play is always to help the team in terms of giving assists, defending and fighting for the team. That is my task. If I score, that\u2019s good but the most important thing is the team.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter who scores or makes the assist. The most important thing is working as a team to produce results for Ghanaians,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The team will continue their preparations later today at the Accra Sports Stadium before leaving the shores of the country on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Ghana leads Group E with 8 points after recording two wins and two draws in their previous four games.<\/p>\n
