“I can see that they have a good team. Partey is there, Kudus has been doing amazing and all the other players. They have to put their heads together and they have to know that this is the time they have to show themselves to the world that they are able to do anything.”
Anthony Annan scored two goals in over 60 appearances for the Black Stars.
