Milo Hails Ghana's Success

Milovan Rajevac says Ghana's qualification to the 2010 World Cup is his greatest career achievement.

The Serbian, who was appointed Ghana coach a year ago to widespread protests and derision, has now masterminded a smooth passage to Africa's first World Cup without conceding a goal in four games and taking maximum points.

The 2-0 victory over Sudan, coupled with the 1-1 draw between Mali and Benin, means with two games remaining, the Black Stars have a seven-point advantage and cannot be overtaken.

And Rajevac thoroughly enjoyed himself, hugging his players, GFA officials and any fan in sight before telling KickOffGhana.com of his pride in leading the Black Stars to the World Cup.

“Ghana has been there once and they understand that it is important to be there again. The second time is always significant and I am so happy for everyone who came out here today,” he said.

“I must also say that I am proud to have become the second Serbian to have led this country to the World Cup after Dujkovic. This is my greatest success as a coach and I hope there will be more to come.”
