Former Black Stars Player Laryea Kingston feels the management of the Ghana Football Association could have protested against the ban that prevented him from appearing at the 2006 World Cup.
Laryea has described his entire playing career as a success but insists it’s very hard for him to accept that he never played at the World cup with the Black Stars.
An incident in a group game between Ghana and Senegal at the 2006 Africa Cup of Nation’s in Egypt triggered Laryea Kinston’s absence from the tournament after he was shown the red card and banned for four games after an altercation with Habib Bei of Senegal.
The former
Hearts of Oak, Terek Grozny and Locomotive Moscow player who played all the qualifying games for the 2006 World cup was overlooked due to the ban and he believes the management of the team at the time could have done something to overturn that decision.
“That time it was our first qualification to the world Cup and you know it was a huge platform so most Ghanaians and everyone never believed that we could sail through from the group so they felt there was no need to send me there because of the ban”
“But it happened that we were able to progress from our group but for me that unfortunate incident I think the management should have prevented it.
“So for me it’s something that most of the management at that time will regret” He told Starr Sports
