Kwesi Appiah happy with goal distribution

Ghana Black Stars coach Kwesi Appiah is happy with the goal scoring prospect of his squad ahead of Ghana’s World Cup qualifier against Egypt on Wednesday. Ghana would have to convincingly win the first leg which will be played at Kumasi to give a boost for the second leg encounter.


Eleven players have scored for the national team in the World Cup qualifiers and the former Ghana captain is happy with the goal distribution.

Kwesi Appiah, who would want to go into the history books as the first Ghanaian coach to send the senior national team to a World Cup tournament told GFAs official website:

“It’s very pleasing to have every player contributing a goal or more. It shows that the Black Stars can get goals from any player, from defence, midfield or attack.

“The group has ability in terms of goal-scoring wise. And that is good for us because we are not reliant on any particular player.

“I am delighted and hope we find many goals in our next match while ensuring our discipline at the back. We have let in three goals though we could have done better.

“But we must keep our balance and improve. We meet a good side but must cause them problems to get what we plan for.”
