First half, these players are not playing well. None of them wants risk his leg to take the ball onto the opponent. This is a disaster. This is making us missing the Ayews because they are the players who can take the ball to the opponent to create a penalty or free-kick closer to the 18 box. We are missing player makers and that is the truth!
We have a lot of work to do on this team. Today they will play well, tomorrow, they don't show up. What is all this?

WE LACK DISCIPLINE N QUALITY TO WIN THE TROPHY, PERIOD. IM SORRY.
i didnt like wat i was seeing in the first half..appalling!
our players look tired and lethargic. LIKE THEY DIDNT WARM UP BEFORE THE GAME. AA, WATS GOING ON?
THE PLAYERS WERE NOT STRINGING TOGETHER THEIR PASSES. THERE WAS NO BREAK N PASS BALL BEING PLAYERD HERE.
THE DEFENCE STILL LOOKS LOOSE AND LACKS DISCIPLINE.
OUR PLAYERS WERENT STRINGING TOGETHER PASSES. AND TAKE THE BALL INSIDE THE 18YARD BOX. THE MIDFIELDERS NEED TO SHOOT THE BALL
ADOMAH WAS USELESS! KASA 11 N ATSU 7 MUST OVERLAP ON THE WINGS N SUPPLY THE BALL TO THE STRIKERS. ADOMAH WAS USELESS!
CAPE VERDE JUST WANTED TO PLAY DEFENDING AND SCORE ON THE COUNTER. SO WAT GH MUST DO IS INVADE THE 18 YARD BOX OF THE CAPE VERDEANS.
GYAN SHOU;DNT HAVE STARTED THIS GAME. AA MUST BRING IN EITHER CLOTTEY OR YIADOM , LET GYAN OBSERVE FROM THE BENCH.
GH UNDERESTIMATED THE CAPE VERDEANS.
LOOK AT THE STATS: HOW MANY SHOTS ON GOAL DID GH HAVE?
HOW MANY INROADS DID GH MADE INTO THE 18YARD BOX? THE CAPE VERDEAN GOALIE WASNT TRIED AT ALL.
ADOMAH, BOATENG N GYAN WERE USELSS IN THIS GAME. ASANTE'S SPEED PROVED WORRYSOME FOR THE CAPE VERDEANS
WAT IS JONATHAN MENSAH, AWAL AND AKAMINKO DOING ON THE BENCH?
SEE, STRIKERS WIN YOU GAMES, BUT DEFENDERS WIN YOU A TOURNAMNT.
PAINSTIL AND BOYE WERE LIABILITIES IN THE BACK TODAY.
PIANSTIL DOESNT COVER THE LAST POLE IN CORNER KICK SITUATIONS, WHY?....
KASA WAS AWOL IN THIS GAME. HE WAS LOST. AA USE, KASA ON THE LEFT WING.
GYAN, GYAN, WAT A STUPID STRIKER. THE LEAST SAID ABOUT THIS GUY, THE BETTER. AA SHOULD SIT HIM ON THE BENCH.
BRING IN GYAN IN THE LATE STAGES OF THE SECOND HALF. HE IS A FOOLISH STRIKER!
DEREK BOATENG IS ANOTHER FOOLISH PLAYER. WAT DID I TELL YOU ABOUT ASANTE?.....ASANTE SHOULD TAKE THE BALL INTO THE
18YARD BOX MORE OFTEN N CREATE SITUATIONS TO SHOOT FIRST OR PASS LATER. WAT AN AWESOME HUSTLE FROM THIS LAD...
AA, WHY ARE THESE GH PLAYERS NOT LIFTING METAL? WHY?
OUR DEFENSE LACKS QUALITY AND DISCIPLINE
SEE, STRIKERS WIN YOU GAMES, BUT DEFENDERS WIN YOU A TOURNAMNT.

Solomon asante must start ahead of Adoma. Adomah is just not up to standard in my personal coaching experience. Asante plays like a playmaker, he changes the flow of the game and brings more urgency into the team. I don't know why the coach keeps him on the bench all the time. Let's all be honest how many players can give accurate passes and through-passes like Asante. That guy is on a different level. You can tell he clicks with Gyan and can open more scoring goals to the team. Football is not all about height. Give Asante the chance to start, and we will all witness a different black stars.

You people keep bringing this Cameroon team that is nothing but weak defense and midfielders. Why don't you make the comparisons with any other teams but Cameroon? Cameroon is no more one of the best in Africa, do your research and will find out.
When our team plays poor, allow us to say it. Why some of you hate it when the truth is told? Yes we won, yes the winning is the most important; however, this is not a team that was supposed to break our midfield. If Cape Verde can break us like that then what are we going to do when we meet a real team?
We need to tell it as it is and stop that sugar coding. If we don't talk about it, it wouldn't get fix. We will think we have the best which on the field we don't. Unless all these pot holes are sealed, we will have problems with teams that can take advantage on our numerous wasting of possessions.
Yes, kudos to them but it was a nerve wrecking match. Oh, by the way, I can run none stop for that five minutes you talked about. Moreover, in case you don't know, in football, no one runs none-stop for five minutes. That is why you need to play with wisdom. You separate yourself to receive the ball, you look and give it out to your opponent. I played alongside great players. Even now, I still play. So you see, not everyone on this forum never played. Some of us have done so, may be not you.
Therefore, I have a lot to say. Come again.

We're through to the Semi finals and that's all that matters. Now the quater finals is history, we now need to know who we're playng next and get ready for them. Leave Ivory Coast out for now, when we meet them Appiah will definately know what to do. Remember, the Ivorians had to come from behind to draw against Algeria. If an African team can put in 2 goals against Ivory Coast, then know that no team can be taken for granted. Therefore, do whatever it takes to win every match and that's all that matters.

Sulley thanks for your correction on Burkina pairing with Togo not South Africa.
Now, I agree with you Sulley. Asamoah Gyan has been watching the matches from the pitch not off the pitch. That is not good. He is in the game and nothing is seeing in him. I think Appiah is keeping the youngster for the important matches since he just recuperated from injury.
Kissi Boateng's case is what I don't understand because John Paintsil hasn't been himself since the beginning of the tournament. Instead of him to keep the balls on the ground, he rather loops or keeps the balls high whilst he himself knows that our players are too short for those passes.
If this performance was a tactical mapping, then I will be satisfy with the result. However, if it is not, then folks, we need to tight our belts because the nations that are left wouldn't fall for this lay back midfield performance. There were too many loop holes at the midfield than usual.
I also agree with you on the coach to come out and pronounce Dauda as our number 1 goalie. The goalkeeper did superbly well. He deserves it, at least for this match.

The coach has to have the formation, tactics and player combinations for every potential team the Black Stars have to meet from now on. They have to watch the videos of games played by those teams, know their penalty takers and advice Dauda, know the style of their goalie and pass it on to Wakaso and the team should practice the penalty shootout intensely behind close doors. Victory from now will not be determined by luck alone but by brains, skill, strategy, guts and Divine Guidance.

A W is a W. Period. The next game will have a different strategy. You don't attack a team like Cape Verde who are here to waste time and count on a lucky counter attack to steal and win a game. In the end the clever Coach Appiah and the Ghana Black Stars gave Cape Verde a taste of their very own medicine - the second goal was a well calculated counter attack after fooling the Sharks into confidently venturing out of the sea into the sands of the beaches of Ghana (Ghana's defensive third). Well done Black Stars. The smartest tactician won - the Stars and their coach with impregnable Dauda in posts for our nation!

What really happened. Why did the midfield melt away. Maybe Commander Appiah thought the Cape Verde midfield wizards were superior to that of the Black Stars, so he instructed our defenders to play long balls to our forwards and thereby dissolving the midfield as part of a masterpiece strategy? The Blacks were too tired and sloppy in early parts of first half and the second half. No girls should be allowed near their hotels and they must come out with the killer instinct in the next game.

We can't play the same way all the time. It's just like life. Some days are windy and some are cloudy. You can't always eat your cake and have it. We went into the 2nd half to soak pressure and catch them on the breaks. It was really a nerve wrecking game but I guess Appiah's game plan worked pretty well. Though the 2nd goal came a bit too late, I guess it was a good tactical game mastered by Appiah and his bench staff. All our matches can't be the same.

What if he messed up like the likes of Paintsil? Why was he voted Man-of-the-match and not the entire team voted men of the match? Face the fact even if you hate that guy; he is just the best. Those saves where world class period! Are you wiser than the panel that voted him man of the match? TELL US MATCHES THAT KWARASEY PUT UP THOSE SAVES AND WE WON.

Adomah is just making us play 10 against 11. He's suppose to be the playmaker but he never comes in for pass from the back. Only time will tell for Rabiu to be given a red card. Any smart coach will substitute him. The way Ghana plays sucks. No one comes for passes. It's like they're all always running away from the ball and behind defenders. This is 1980 style of football. triangle, & square passes is what's on now in 2012-2013. Asamoah Gyan need to come for passes and play 1-2s for him to score instead of waiting for a mistake from a defender. I don't know why our players are always hiding behind defenders? WHY???

The players need to be psyched up mentally and warmed up physically b4 each match!!! They need a psychological boost before the match. They need to watch the quantity and quality of what they eat b4 each game. The Key word for Ghana's performance today is :TENTATIVE: the players were hesitant, and they played as if they lacked confidence. I can conclude that they DID NOT underestimate Cape Verde, but BS failed to impose THEIR WILL and also prevent UNFORCED ERRORS. The BS made only 8 shots at goal and only two were on target, whiles Cape Verde made 16 shoots at goal and 7 were on target.

no good pases, only long ball, they lose the ball all the time ... both of them do not deserve to be quarter finalists

Many Ghanaians thought Cape Verde is a child play.This cape Verdian is different from the Cape Verde we used to beat.They are very physical and their touches are on of the best.
If Ghana beat Cape Verde they can win the Cup. They're currently playing 4-3-3 formation when they are in possession,as soon as they loose the ball it changes to 5-4-1 formation and Ghanaians are finding it very difficult to pass through this defense .
Irrespective of the fact that Ghana need to score they should be cautious because Cape Verde on counter is very dangerous.
The second half is what gonna prove KWASI APPIAH tactical ability.Ghana should start to move into spaces, use the wings and give diagonal long passes.
Ghana can win this match.Also Cape verde being very clinical on the field will posse problem for Ghana.
IF CAPE VERDE SCORES FIRST GHANA CAN NEVER EQUALIZE .Due to the tactical and defensive ability they've shown so far.

Was Kwarasey not given the chance to prove his worth in last year's AFCON? He did but not like what we are seeing from DAUDA this AFCON. If even he was a bit OK, what was his performance in the matches afterwards? Poor air ball timing and outing is one big problem he had. He also lacked confidence even though you claim he is experienced. Which experienced goal keeper never build confidence? If you are experienced, your confidence is with you wherever you go and you need no lesson to be used to any mentality in today's soccer. Do we play a square-shaped ball in Africa that he has to be used to, or we play in the air and water that he does not know. Do you think Fatau just started keeping just yesterday? He started when he was about 12 years and at 15 he was keeping post in matches involving a lot of professionals when they are at home for holidays including the likes of Alex Nyarko, Emmanuel Kuffuor, Kwansah, Owusu Benson, Yaw preko (sometimes) and many more. If you don't know, he has been invited before on the local black stars team, so he knows what he is doing. If you think Kwarasey is better than him, tell us what kwarasey does better or different and stop talking down about him without reason. What standard are you talking about? A good goal keeper is known when he performs in a top rated match like the AFCON and performs well consistently without flop; exactly what Dauda did and continue to do. I did not want to take side on these goal keepers but I think the records needs to be set straight. Daniel Agyei is also no cheap goal keeper; we saw it in the youth world cup.

Well said. others did their share - Afful's well timed header; Asamoah Gyan's penalty etc. The next game will have a different strategy. You don't attack a team like Cape Verde who came here to waste time and count on a lucky counter attack to steal and win a game. In the end, the clever Coach Appiah and the Ghana Black Stars gave Cape Verde a taste of their very own medicine - the second goal was a well calculated counter attack after fooling the Sharks calmly and systematically into confidently venturing out of the sea into the sands of the beaches of Ghana (Ghana's defensive third). Well done Black Stars. The smartest tactician won - the Stars and their coach with impregnable Dauda in posts for our nation! Lets go Black Starrrrrsssss!

Asamoah Gyan you're my favourite player but if you want to save your Ghana career please leave that bogus league you're playing in.
It's not doing you any good because you've started to lack the physical demands when playing on this type of stage. The pace wasn't there and neither was the strength. How can you let these defenders man handle you like that man? Anyway well done Ghana even though we played horrible football. I just pray that we improve our performances in the Semis and hopefully the Final. Good Luck boys

Was Ghana LUCKY or what? I heard Ghana did well in the first half but I watched the second half and was I disappointed. Cape Verde played much better and impressive game. If the match had been scored on points, the result would have been a win for Cape Verde or at worse a draw. Ghana what happened to man to man technical skills? The player of the hour was the goalkeeper - Duada.

If He leaves UAE his career will end. He now lacks competiveness. He is not sharp anymore that is why he tries to get fouled when he gets the ball.

Derek Boateng's 6 minutes plus normal time plus 5 minutes injury time input was wprth more than the total 84 minutes that Rabiu contributed...or did not contribute.
Solomon Asante and Derek's introduction made the Wakaso in troduction earlier on click...because the Wakaso in troduction wheren it happened, took place when both Rabiu (worst player) and Atsu (bad day) were still on the pitch so the change was not bearing fruits until Derek and Solomon joined in.
Please correct me if I am wrong.

Or score 3 in the semi and 1 in finals.
May be more glorious finals with the score - Gh 3 against opponent, haven won a lone goal in the semi.

Had it not been number of goals being the determinant of a winner in soccer, I would have in my opinion say Ghana did not win this match.
Reasons;
COACH
Kwesi Appiah made his substitutions very late though the midfield was completely broken after we scored the first goal; Rabiu should have made way for a more holding midfielder, Derek. Cape Verd's Platini should have been marked throughout by an assigned player as Paintsil was seriously leaking and suffering from his swiftness. I was probably expecting a defender like Akaminko or Jonathan Mensah to replace him and give a boost to our central defenders when the opponents find themselves in the 18 yards; that did not happen.
Adomah's change was a plus for Appiah as it strengthened the upfront a bit.
Cape Verde from the way they played showed they watched our clip against Niger very well and found the antidotes which was using the wings especially the right back.
In all the Stars where yearning for a direction from the coach at some point which failed to come as they kept playing out of formation and easily losing ball possessions.
PLAYERS
No doubt Fatau Dauda defended Appiah's choice of him over Kwarasey; not to say he is conclusively better than Kwarasey yet; more time to measure that. I won't be surprised if he is crowned MAN-OF-THE-MATCH. He deserves it after the brilliant saves, timing and command of the post. An advice to him is not to be carried over by this performance in rating himself the finest; more work to be than.
ATSU was targed by the opponnents as dangerous owing to his performance in the Ghana-Niger match. He was marked properly and barely given space, sometimes forced to lose balls. That is the power of watching carefully the video of your opponents game and cooking a solution for them if they chose to use the same set of players.
ASAMOAH GYAN as always was average. He played more of a play-maker role than a striker. I think he needs some pep talks on the urgency of getting goals being paramount over display of skills as it is the measure of a win for teams. His fetching the penalty for Ghana was a great judgment. He could have strongly woven himself past the defender as he did in the world cup against USA and scored but he did what professionals do.
AGYEMAN BADU was above average but played more attacking than occasionally falling back to help hold the midfield and as a result Rabiu was over burdened with the stout and fast paced Cape Verdeans.
KOJO ASAMOAH as always was himself and did what has to be done. Helped Afful occasionally when the going got tough.
AFFUL was great with intercepting balls but on few occasions gave the ball away. Being yellow-carded at a point calmed and tamed him a little.
VORSAH was without doubt a pillar that held the defence in check with him benefitting from his height tremendously against the tall and strong opponents.
BOYE just as Vorsah handled his role pretty well except for the periodic over working leashed on him by Paintsil's disturbing leakages at some points.
SOLOMON ASANTE clearly showcased how when given more play time could cause surprises. His excellent faking to shoot but giving a pass to WAKASO was just great!
ADOMAH, another progressive talent today held on to ball for too long at some points. I don't blame him, his threat of being one who sharply sets up goals with swift passes was committed to memory by the opponents and as a result did not give him room to operate.
In all, I think Appiah has a lot to add, change and perfect if Ghana should be playing come February 10th in the finals.
Since with soccer, a win is measured by the number of goals you scored, I say WELL DONE GUYS! WE WISH YOU ALL AND THE TECHNICAL TEAM THE BEST.

@Vorsah nearly caused havoc infront of our goal area [What a heck was he doing to protect the ball for Dauda. [Coach Appiah has to work on him]
@Asamoah Gyan was sluggish upfront and needs to wake up from his slumber.[ Try Clottey too, especially getting latter stages of the game.Thank God it was Wakaso who got the chance to score, Had it been Gyan i don't know what would have happened.

I was highly disappointed in Ghana against Cape Verde. Midfield suck. we miss ayews, sulleys. This is my analysis:
ADOMA AND RABIU-needs to be out. clearly they demonstrated they nt ready for big stage. They shud sit down or betta yet, join the women in the stands. Put in Derek boateng n Wakaso
PANTSIL- He is too old for dis tournament. Can the coach pls cut him loose so he can go see his grandkids
GYAN- as usual. need 100 chances to score 1 goal. but we dont hav strikers so he keeper
ATSU - The kid got potential but seems very inconsistent to the say the least. Nt sure where he belongs and bit indecisive. he ratha spend time displaying his skillful ability on the pitch then pushing the ball forward. Sit him down and let him come in second half to display those skills to burn the clock after we up
ASANTE- The kid needs to start. he is a keeper
WAKASO- The kid got great potential but needs to strike while its hot. The kid reaction time is too slow. needs to be quick but def a keeper n needs to start
VORSAH, BOYE, AFFUL- consistent bunch so far. they need help from da midfield tho.
KWADWO ASAMOAH - Kid been MIA so far. He seems to be cautions so he doesnt pick an injury. the kid ratha honor his club Juventus, than Ghana. but his experience needed for the finals.
DEREK ASAMOAH -this kid gotta start cos he is the only defennsive mildfielder we got to help the backcourt. Additionally, he helped stabilize the midfield n the team as a whole. he however need more playing time to keep his flow.
DAUDA- I offer my sincere apology to this kid for continuously undermining him thruout this tournament. this kid reminds me of the greatest ghana goalie ever, Robert Mensah.
KWASI APPIAH - worst tactician ever but at least he is a local coach. if he makes these changes, THE AFRICAN CUP WILL BE BACK HOME 30+ YEARS OF MISSING.

He keeps his eyes on the ball, never checking out the coordinates of the goalpost nor out-psyching the goalie with a hexing stare. This Wakaso shots the penalty unlike good old Aggrey Fynn, Addo Odamettey, Abdul Rasak, Opoku Afriyie, Mohammed Polo, Osei Kofi and of course the hazardous Asamoah Gyan. He may have a GPS device embeded in his brain so he needs not care where the goalposts are. His confidence is skyhigh. In the penalty against Cape Verde, he shot through the middle with slower shot, allowing enough time for the goalie to move from the center. Good technique indeed. Wakaso is the wizard of the penalty shot so far.

Wake up folks.That is today's soccer.What counts most is a W.The days of entertaining soccer is history.Nobody wants to know who was pleasant on the field but rather who came out with a W.You talking about Cape Verde they are no walk overs.They did not get here by mistake.They had to W over other teams before getting to the Qtr finals.The days when names mattered in sports is over.Look at Douglas did to Mike Tyson.He underrated Douglas and he paid a huge price.In today's soccer you never get in there to entertain if you want to be a commedian you donot belong to the team.Kudos to our B/S players,the coachand his Tech.team and everyone behind the scenes that has bring us this far.Continue to fight for W and not L because nobody cheers a L.Thanks.

"Cape Verde dominated in the second half, but the important thing is that we won and are through to the semi-finals. Cape Verde proved me right that they would be tough."
Cape Verde coach Luis Antunes:
"Today, we all watched a beautiful game but, unfortunately, the best team is going home and the tournament will lose its shine.
"This was our fourth game and in our first three games there were no questions - now there are questions. You should draw your own conclusions.
"They would want to see Ghana move into the semi-finals or do you want 200 spectators to watch Cape Verde against Togo in the semi-finals?"

What are we looking for ? beautiful football or winning matches ? Ghana has won and the boys has changed their mindset from dancing on the soccer pitch to winning games on the soccer pitch , so whoever prefers beautiful soccer to winning games can choose to support Cape Verde.

That huge bonus of 35, 000 should not have been announced at all. It could have been kept secret until they either won the cup or were knocked out after a gallant battle. Now they seem to be playing with no incentive nor killer instinct with exception of Dauda and Wakaso the Man. The former sport director Ohene Djan would not make public comments on bonuses during a tournament. The players play for Ghana the motherland with Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah watching closely. There players like Mfum, Osei Kofi, Baba Yara, Edward Acquah, Abukari Gariba and Addo Odamettey who would rather die than lose a game and who do not talk in vain to the media but back their words with real action. Those days when the Black Stars play, their ball possession was 90 to 10. Pure amazement. The formation was 2-3-5 as the circus bribblers Baba Yara, Aggrey Fynn, Addo Odamettey, Osei Kofi, Ofei Dodoo, Ben Kusi, Kwame Adarkwa, Yaw Sam, Oliver Acquah control the midfield and cover areas in and around the center circle. Ball control, body swerves,pretending to have the ball and having players running after you for nothing(Osei Kofi), Mono-leg bribbling ( Polo),dribbling a defender by making a circle through his legs(Adarkwa), dribbling the ball along the touchline with speed finese with change of direction such that players of the other team collide in total disarray .....were tools used by the Black Stars of old to mesmerise Africa and the world. Of course the ball eventually gets to the unfailing goalscorers Edward Acquah, Mfum, Kofi Pare, Abukari, Gyamfi, Anas, Abekah Ankrah, Osumanu Orlando, George Alhassan,..... These skills must be re-invented so that the Black Stars will win again with style.

The second half was a nightmare on the part of the BS. The midfield was broken down and Rabiu Mohammed was the culprit. He created so many fouls around the penalty box and even went his opponents 18? to also create a foul..What is this? We were even scared he is going to attract red card to let the BS down. Now if you created foul around the penalty box for free kicks to awarded against you..What do you expert? Pressure and that was what we were experiencing. When you watch this guy/s play you will realize that he is either heckling some body or diving or sliding recklessly to crash into an opponent to get foul. All these creates problems at the midfield. Coach Appiah must replace him with Annan or Wakaso at 6 position.
@ Another area coach Appiah must work on is communication at the defense. Our defense is now good but sometimes lacks communication.There were some lapses on the part of Vorsah which needs to be corrected.[What a heck were you doing to protect the ball for Dauda? Loosing concentration?]
@Clinical finish is what Gyan needs but he is sluggish upfront now a days. Sometimes the coach has to substitute him with either Yiadom Boakyi [now fit] or Clottey to justify coach his principle of players competition in team to wake up Gyan from his slumber. Thank God the chance fell on the part of Wakaso to score the second goal. Had this chance fell on Gyan’s path, i don’t know what would have happened.
@Another area Coach Appiah has to work on is the cohesion of the team which used to be the hall mark of the BS. Yesterday there were gargantuan faulty passes on the part of the BS, OMG me and you faulty passes..simple passes they can not co ordinate to each other? This all happened at the midfield and upfront too. I wish to state it was individual brilliance and experience which helped the BS out.
Anyway, congratulations for winning the match and that alone should serve as a motivation to go into the next match with your winning mentality. I would like also to encourage fans and all on sundry to rally behind the BS to march to victory.

For many Ghanaians, especially the lay football fans, Ghana has won so nothing bothers them.Whether about 80% of the second half was played in the half of the Blackstars is not of concern to them. Or whether the Blackstars received most of the caution or infringement was of no concern to them.But I want to say that is just a matter of time for the Blackstars to be exposed of their bankrupt tactical deficiency.
The whole of Ghana is only waiting for the Blackstars to be kicked out of the compitition to start the blame game. But I am an advocate of ''prevention is better than cure'' or more seriously a proactive person than a reactive person so I will say it now.
Ghana is believed to belong to the so called football nations but played Cape Verde which was not known in football in Africa under serious suffocation on the part of the Blackstars.
Watching the first match against DR Congo I saw that the Blackstars was not a cup winning team going into this competition. Ubfortunately, those sports journalists and other Ghanaians who have been blinded by patriotism want us to believe that the performance of the Blackstars was ok.Very soon the wheat will be seperated from the chaff, whether we like it or not because the competition has entered the knock-out stage.
Our game has been characterised by erratic passing and shooting if any,indescent tackling so we usually receive lots of caution,poor technical and tactical play so we are wasteful and jittery against our opponents.
Chelsea F.C of London won the EUFA cup during the 2011/12 football season but it was agreed by football analysts that it was based on luck. Cape Verde should have been winners of the quarter final clash with Ghana but it was the opposite because of luck on the part of Ghana.
Ghana is now living on past glories and that is the reason the last AFCON we won is several years back.
The truth is we are not yet there and those countries known as minnows are doing better than some of the so called giants like Ghana.

The midfield for the Black Stars was totally broken..
A W is a W. Period. The next game will have a different strategy. You don't attack a team like Cape Verde who are here to waste time and count on a lucky counter attack to steal and win a game. In the end the clever Coach Ap ...

What really happened. Why did the midfield melt away. Maybe Commander Appiah thought the Cape Verde midfield wizards were superior to that of the Black Stars, so he instructed our defenders to play long balls to our forwards ...

WHY KEEP RABIU WITH A RED CARD IN THE GAME FOR THIS LONG? SHOW-BOATING FROM OUR PLAYERS, LACK OF A KILLER INSTINCT. WELL, WE WON BUT I AM NOT REALLY IMPRESSED. A WIN IS A WIN THOUGH.
Man of the match was our goalie, Daouda. He will soon be picked up by a European team. Great choice by Appiah. Our boys were outplayed in this one though. Hopefully they will come with their game in the semis.
If Ghana is thinking of winning the cup, they better start to practice perfect ball distribution and running to open spaces.
WTF...GHANA is playing like amateurs...very poor game from ghana.
Cape Verde were far superb and wd should buy the refree a drink later. no hope with our dismal performance
True, the referee was generous. The penalty was clean though
generous to cape cerde. boycott vodaphone, one!

This is their best game in the tournament so far.
They didn't have any pressure on, I mean the Cape Verses so they were relaxed and played their best game. They were not expected to beat Ghana so they played a relaxed game.
Sorry @Alugu did you watch the match at all?
I can now see you are very realistic.Kudos brother.

Why do they keep going to the wings?
exactly! we are playing a boring game. there are no playmakers at all
Useless team can keep you on the edge.
Adoma should release the ball early. He is always losing the ball.
useless player
When someone dashes forward, you have to release the ball fast otherwise he will be off-side. And that's what is happening.
Rabiu should be very careful. He should stop his silly tackles and play the ball. Ghana do not deserve a red card. To be fore warn is to be fore arm.
The boys are not playing to my liking. C'mon Stars, let do it!
Rabiu is good ...but he's on yellow card. Better bring on fresh legs than risk playing 10 against 11
The technical team.. where are they. They should advise Appiah to take Rabiu out of the game. Preserve his for semi's and at the same time risk playing 10 v 11.
what was this lieup?
Rabiu is not experienced enough. Several of his challenges would have warranted a second yellow or straight red with some referees. We need another striker up front.
Against a team like ivory coast...they will kill us in the midfield. what is up with all these stupid long balls!!! they way to defeat them is in the midfield
Allah will strike you down you fool! Son of a devil!! You will fall!!!!!!!
blame Akwasi Appiah
To be honest, no offence to the coach but we are tactically bankrupt. We are just playing with the hope that we can capitalize on CV's mistake and score.
INSHAH ALLAH, (God willing) Ghana will win.

We are living on a prayer

All should rest their case as Appiah's choice of Dauda over Kwarasey is vindicated.

The guy is just good. All opposing teams will fear him. He's got a bit of good luck too. He will go places if he continues this way.
Where were you when we kept calling for his inclusion in the B/Stars? Who should baby sit for you to take charge as a dad later? Lol
He plays like the old Black Stars with total commitment and fearlessness. His penalty kicks are quite scary to watch but thats okay so long as it ends up in the goal.

i love ghana
Prayers and Good goal keeing got us through
Dauda can be compared to Robert Mensah - true
Black Stars wore the Sharks down and eventually pulled them out of the waters to the beach where sharks can't swim! Well done Starssssssssssss!
Dauda saved the day for us at 1-0. Had he not made the saves he did and the corners he kept plugging out of the air, I think it would have been a different story. My man of the Match as well.

Two more to go, they really look like a winning team, Fatawu was F A N T A S T I C today.
Shame unto you Blackstar. Win African cup and i will call it SHAME TO AFRICAN FOOTBALL. CAPE VERDE DESERVED TO WIN
how? they didn't take their chances so how is it their fault? Am confused

I was highly disappointed in Ghana against Cape Verde. Midfield suck. we miss ayews, sulleys. This is my analysis:
ADOMA AND RABIU-needs to be out. clearly they demonstrated they nt ready for big stage. They shud sit down o ...

well done stars and mr Appiah
shame on coach DUNCAN for not using Wakaso in most of the U17 games in PERU.the boy was a class in that squad and so was Salifu Razak. stupid greedy Ghanaian coaches will always choose money over talent.
Thanks to GOD amen
THOUGH YOUR PERFORMANCE AT THE TOURNAMENT SO FAR HAS NOT BEEN VERY GOOD YOU KEEP SURPRISING GHANAIANS WITH YOUR WINS.WORK HARD !!!
The pre-tournament favourites needed until the 54th minute to open the scoring, with Wakaso netting from the penalty spot at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in Port Elizabeth.WITH THIS YOU CALLED THEM FAVOURITES?WHERE IS ICOAST?
Wakasso pressence strengh the team so he need to play full!
He keeps his eyes on the ball, never checking out the coordinates of the goalpost nor out-psyching the goalie with a hexing stare. This Wakaso shots the penalty unlike good old Aggrey Fynn, Addo Odamettey, Abdul Rasak, Opoku ...

OUR KEEPER IS VERY GOOD AND HE SAVE US
there is no raw hunger and desire from these rich boys. Please bring in the local boys who are hungry for success. this was shown in their attitude when they loose the ball!!
That huge bonus of 35, 000 should not have been announced at all. It could have been kept secret until they either won the cup or were knocked out after a gallant battle. Now they seem to be playing with no incentive nor kil ...

The Black Stars are a strong team.
As for this game the goal keeper stole the match. He played a perfect game.
Congrats Ghana Black Stars.
I wish you success in your next match.
The second half was a nightmare on the part of the BS. The midfield was broken down and Rabiu Mohammed was the culprit. He created so many fouls around the penalty box and even went his opponents 18? to also create a foul..Wh ...

With his great saves dauda saved the day for us.Good players but we havent hit
our form yet
For many Ghanaians, especially the lay football fans, Ghana has won so nothing bothers them.Whether about 80% of the second half was played in the half of the Blackstars is not of concern to them. Or whether the Blackstars re ...
