“If you gauge the atmosphere, there is a growing concern about how Ghana football in its entirety is doing. It’s a reflection of how the Black Stars fared out there-the 2023 AFCON-the way things have been handled by the GFA in the aftermath of the exit from the AFCON.”
“At this minute, you almost can say that football is on its knees or getting to that level…and whoever would be on the grounds that day would be walking for the love of the game.”
The demonstration comes on the back of Ghana’s first exit from the 2023 AFCON after failing to win any of three games in the tournament for the second AFCON edition in a row.
