Astu did not give a single pass to Dede during the period he played. That was selfish and negative play. Did he have anything against his captain of the day?

This is a poor explanation. These players most of them now playing in Europe are behaving like all their lives they have not played on fields like that when they have played on worse fields in Ghana before.

ATSU, PLEASE SPARE US THE EXCUSES. ACCEPT THE FACT THAT YOU GUYS WERE OUT PLAYED AND LOST THE GAME. NO EXCUSES BECAUSE I WATCHED THE WHOLE MATCH IN THE US AND YOU FOLKS WERE TERRIBLE. COULD NOT KEEP PASSES TOGETHER. PLAYED LIKE HIGH SCHOOL PLAYERS. DONT BLAME THE FIELD BECAUSE THE UGANDANS PLAYED ON THE SAME PITCH. THEY DID NOT HAVE A DIFFERENT SURFACE THAN YOU GUYS HAD. IT WILL BE NICE TO ACCEPT DEFEAT AND GIVE CREDIT TO THE OTHER TEAM. THE PROBLEM WITHT HE BALCK STARS IS THAT SOME ONE LIKE ATSU DOES NOT GET TO PLAY REGULARLY ON HIS TEAM AND WE WXPECT HIM TO COME AND PERFORM. JOHN BOYE IS HORRIBLE BUT KEEP PLAYING AND SO ARE SO MANY OF OUR PLAYERS. JONATHAN MENSAH WAS PLYING LIKE THIS WAS HIS FIRST GAME. SO MANY MISTAKES. SO DONT BLAME THE PITCH BECAUSE BOTH TEAMS PLAYED ON THE SAME PITCH. WE GOT BEAT BY A BETTER TEAM. REMEMBER WHEN WE PLAYED THEM IN KUMASI WE EQUALIZED WITH A CONTROVERSIAL PENALTY.

At the end of the day, our smallish players have trouble with bigger more physical African sides. Uganda reminds me of Zambia. Big buys who are not that skillful but they play physical football and the goalie is good. If you let them get a lead they can physically frustrate you on and off the ball. The tough tackles were too much for little guys like Atsu. Atsu likes to dribble too much but he can only shoot with his left so after all is said and done they just play him to that foot.

Atsu was right the pitch was very poor.you can see in the game that the ball was bouncing around and dust was everywhere. No one could make good combinations. Our players play in Europe and almost all of the Ugandan players are home based. For games like these, I think we should use home base players as well that are used to poor pitches. Asante is based in Africa and he was one of our best players that day but he isn't necessarily one of our best players. Its because he plays on similar pitches in Congo. Don't worry Ghana will show Togo on Wednesday. We're definitely going to AFCON.

Dear Black Stars, its true that Ghana was seriously outplayed in Tamale and Namboole.If you continue with that so called over confidence and underating teams, you might end up loosing to TOGO on Wednesday. Am Ugandan but truely Atsu that day you were just off form and abit frustrated through out the game in Kampala.Forget all about the pitch, were Uganda Cranes players using magic boots or were they playing on a different surface? Please do not give them any bonus,you even shamed the whole nation and Africa during the World Cup 2014. I think the Ghana home based players are better.
