Sekondi Hasaacas were the first team to represent Ghana
During John Essien era.
This listing excluded Baffuor Gyan. The big brother of Asamoah Gyan. He was the only non Phobia player in the squad. He started and played over 60 minutes of the game.
You meant Lawrence Adjei then with Goldfields
But Hearts Of Oak is above them all, The same season Hearts Of Oak won the league, FA Cup, Champions League and First to win the Confederation Cup, No team in Africa has set or broken Hearts of Oak records, Illiterates will e ...

I think the writer is only giving us teams that have ever represented the country contrary to what the 20th century people know.
Ben Kayode was not an RTU player . He was Accra great Olympics player
Even Abedi wasn't an RTU player at that time.

ALFRED PAPPOE IF YOU ARE HUNGRY FIND FOOD TO EAT AND STOP MAKING USELESS NOISE. YOU CAN GO AND BEG FOR FOOD OR CATCH MICE, ITS FREE!
Alfred Pappoe, ease up.
Should we be consumed by the economic mess of today? Absolutely not. Even the great depression of 1943, life went on for America and the world.
Tough times don't last, tough be do.

It's called entertainment. This is cool bragging rights. If you don't have food to eat. Go and plant cassava and yams. Lazy bastard.
NONSENSE, WHEN DID ABEDI PELE STARTED PLAYING FOOTBALL? GHANA HAD DONE THAT CRAP WITH KOTOKO AND HEARTS FOR YEARS. WHAT ABOUT THE REAL REPUBLICANS OF OLD!
CORRECTION; ABEDI PELE START PLAYING FOOTBALL
Well, RTU's was an International friendly as against the Phobai's match with the Green Eagles of Nigeria, which was a W/C qualifier.
You are absolutely right sir
Accra Heats of Oak was the first Ghanaian club side to represent Ghana in a World Cup Qualifier! Mevor oa! Haha!
Great Oly was the first to represent Ghana in the 60s when they played Togo and won the game.
Oh, mine! This is a true legend! Kwame Danger!
Yes..He played with Nlai Mahama and Mohammed Choo. Later joined by Abu Imoro and Abedi Pele. Great guys
That was a great team with players like Musa States, Karim Starboy, Mahama Nlai, Mohammed Choo, Kwame Danger,
Anane Kobo, ... Abedi Pele.
There was another legend of that RTU called Baba Killer.
FACTS ARE THAT DURING THE 1970 WORLD CUP QUALIFIER HEARTS AUGMENTED BY GOALKEEPER ROBERT MENSAH AND JONES ATTUQUAYEFIO JOINED HEARTS TO FACE THE GREEN EAGLES IN WHICH GHANA UNFORTUNATELY FAILED TO QUALIFY FOR THE NEXT ROUND. ...

Real Republicans was the first club to represent Ghana in 1963
Kotoko represented Ghana in1983 @ Ivory coast for SCSA tournament...
No hearts of oak player ever wins Africa best player award or get selected to represent Africa eleven
HOW FAR HAS ANY 'AFRICAN ELEVEN' TEAM EVER GONE IN ANY TOURNAMENT? I DOUBT IF THEY HAVE EVER BEATEN EVEN 'INDIA ELEVEN', WHICH IS A SUBSET OF ASIA!
Hearts of oak is the only Ghanaian team that has been ranked in the world's top ten teams.
Accra Great Olympics was the first Ghanaian club to represent the national side, the Black Stars in a match against the Togo national side, the Sparrowhawks in 1960. Oly won the match 1-0. It was neither Hearts of Oak nor RTU ...

You lie man. Tell us the name of that competition. You can't play Canada in Korea if it is not friendly and forget the name of the said tournament. Remember Ghana had never gone to world cup with the black stars. So man com ...

Dada, will you take advantage of the free SHS to learn how to answer questions. The matter being discussed here is the first club to represent the Black Stars in a match. We are not talking about a tournament. And the answer ...

Pele scored over 1000 goals but official records do not recognize that. We know of Hearts of Oak record but not RTU. No hatred
A Hearts team captained by Joe Dakota repsented Ghana in Kenya in the early seventies. I remeber it because i had a picture of the team i cut from the Drum magazine
Just so bad we don't have old videos of that great RTU team of the early to mid eighties. It was packed with talent.
And what did they win? Hearts and Kotoko were still winning the league with more quality players who were playing for the Black Stars and winning the African cup. How many RTU players played for the BSs then?. They did well, ...

You are all wrong. Accra Great Olympics was the first to represent the Black Stars. They beat Togo to win the Independence cup for Ghana. That was in 1960. So why the hulabaloo
Small boys are young. When complete Hearts of Oak fully represented Ghana Black Stars, Abedi Pele was not born neither was Bafour Djan. Hearts featured players like Joe Gartey, Robert Folley against Cameron (or Zambia) in an ...

This is so funThis information is not true. Fact is when Hearts had the Fearsome Fivesome made up of Mohannad Polo, Anas Seidu, Robert Hammond, Foley and Mana Acqua h
This is so funny. This information is not true. Fact is when Hearts had the Fearsome Fivesome made up of Mohannad Polo, Anas Seidu, Robert Hammond, Foley and Mama Acquah Hearts represented Ghana when Abedi was a kid.
Peter Lamptey not Foley
EIIIII GHANAIANS HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO THINK ABOUT TO IMPROVE THEIR TATTERED CEDI AND FILTHY ENVIRONMENT
We are talking about serious competitive match not friendlies
Great Olympic was the first in the early 70's
Olympic played against Madagascar, the Blackstar had an assign the same time.
It was at atime when Jones Attorquayefio played for zolydade. Olympic won that match.
Most of you are doing guess work here; why not go to GfA site for the these information? I do know Hearts represented the BS even against Cameroon Younde in 1981 or 1982 in a qualifying match and drew 1 all and then in the se ...
