No team wants to play with Black Stars, says GFA Chairman
By Awudu Salami Sule


August 12, 2009 is a day set up by FIFA for countries to play friendly matches but Mr Kwasi Nyantakyi, the Chairman of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) has revealed no team on the African continent was willing to play with Ghana's senior national team, the Black Stars.


This he said was due to the sterling performance put up by the Black Stars during the World Cup qualifiers.


"We have won all our three matches in the first round of the World Cup qualifiers and that has sent other African countries panicking to play with us" the GFA Chairman revealed.


According to Mr Nyantakyi Ghana made a contact with the Moroccan national team to play a friendly match but it refused. He said, another contact was made to play with Namibia but to no avail and Zambia also refused to accept the honour to play with the Ghana's senior national team.


"All these countries turned down our request because they fear the Black Stars and they are sure of a humiliating defeat from the Black Stars", he added.


Meanwhile, unconfirmed report available to Ghanadot has it that the Zambian national team has finally agree to play with the Black Stars on August 12.


The Chipolopolo’s are still challenging for a place in South Africa as they remain third in their group after having missed out of all previous attempts to the World Cup and will use the game to prepare for their impending World Cup qualifier.
