Three up, three down, and three more matches to go. Stage one has been phased out and stage two - win or go home is in!

Realistically, is the Ghanian capable is lifting this 2013 Cup? Well, patrons and observers alike are watching from the sidelines.

Some of us have already booked our VIP seats for Saturday's match. We want to see Richmond Boakye, Atsu, Tony Annan, Clottey shine.

Who wins: Ghanianistically Black Stars vrs Blue Sharks of Cape Verde?

Let's go Stars!!!

I think Ghana will be too strong for CV. That said I think our defense is a little shaky. Personally, I think Adoma should be replaced with Asante. 2-0 goals coming from Atsu and Badu

ATSU BEING FINALLY IN HIS GROUDS WITH A TROPHY AS MAN OF THE MATCH THEN GHANA HAVE THE HOPE. THE NEXT MATCH 3 GOALS IN FAVOUR OF GHANA.

we can only get better. i have believe in you especially the manner in which you have gradually introduced players into the team and patiently phasing out tired limps.
however, the basic skills of ball controlling and ball passing is still ghana's bane and anytime we are able to get them right most invariably it results in a goal.
we are looking forward to you giving kissi boateng a go at the left full back position. he will add more thrust, he will be more ingenious and bold than what we are seeing at tthe moment.

There is indeed more room for improvement. Some of the players became complacent and lost their concentration at certain stages of the match. Agyeman Badu did well and worked hard but he became a little complacent and tended to over-elaborate instead of playing it simple. John Paintsil resorted to his characteristic dilly-dallying at one stage; and lost his concentration in another stage giving the ball away in a vital area. His antics nearly cost Ghana a goal on two occasions. Vorsah must learn to give accurate passes to the midfielders or attackers. Some of his passes were wayward and caused problems for the Black Stars. Also Fatau Dauda must learn to punch the ball away if uncertain rather than attempt to catch it in the air all the time. Last but not the least, the selfish streak almost entered its ugly head in front of goal especially in the second half as players wanted to get on the score sheet. This must stop. The teamwork approach is working well for us. Hope the coach will draw these flaws to the attention of the team in the post match analysis and discussions. The potential is there for the Black Stars to contest with any team if these deficiencies are rectified. Congratulations to the team and May Good Fortune continue to smile on them throughout the rest of the tournament and beyond.

I wished you had said something about the MRAA Law and the law itself.

By your conservative estimation,can you say the law was, OOPS! my bad.
Using the law as the new ordinance in vogue, could you say it has been effective? Is it getting a hold on the boys?
My godson has the same questions on his desk. The Governor is mute tho.

Have you detected the level of my excitement? Haaaa
Beats Me.

Bro. Sarks. I am a bit loss in so far as MRAA's law is concerned. I will need a little bit of education here before I can comment. But I think whatever decree or dictat that AA is using as a guideline, what he needs to concentrate on most is TACTICAL DISCIPLINE on the pitch. He must continue to read the riot to those players who do not meet up to expectations. We are all excited by the way the boys have been performing but we are not there yet. So we must keep our feet on the ground; show a little humility and continue to pray for our boys. The Heavens will guide them to the ultimate goal.

Hi Akwasi you know ghanaians like you and they have put their trust in you. Do whatever you can and I hope you can make it through extra hard working.
Kwasi there is one thing you must to do to avoid defeat at any match. Dont let the players relex meaning that they have already worn or about to win by score one to two or three goals when the game is still on. Dont forget that any team can score one to three goals between 30mins if you dont take your playing serious.
Let the players be vigelant for 90mins plus extra time and make sure their passes will reach sucessfully.
In addition, any player should not be so happy of scored one or two goals within a game. This is whereby they dont rush balls anymore and starting playing with unnecessary styles, not handle balls seriously etc. If you notice a player with such behaviour you must change him immediatly. Not only that but the back passes could be dangerous especially to the keeper, defends must attacks balls effectively before panalty lane.

Yes, Coach be wary of Derek Boateng. He is no longer what he was and how he was. He must know this and allow others to play. the truth is that he is not in form. His passes were always went to the opponents. He tackling often ended in foul against Ghana and in a few instances he got yellow cards(that is, in games spanning before and through this tournament). We need Midfielders who are 100% fit and in form for the Knock-Out stages, please.

Hello Coach Appiah I am one person that use to critize you all the time about the omitting of the Abedi brothers but this time I have to congratulate you for the performance against Niger:) You did a marvelous work and I just want to say congratulations brother.Well done:) keep the good work and Ghana will reward:) I was so happy that I did not even know what to do with my self:) but remember not to take it personally when I critize you because we are all humans and we make mistakes all the time.It is only by critizims that we can learn to correct our mistakes so when I write stuff about you here don’t take them personally brother but promise that next time you will call those boys because they are good and could have added more power to the team if you had selected them.What ever happened between you and Abedi should not affect the career of those boys.They are not part of your dispute:)
