Black Stars forward Joseph Paintsil has stated that he doesn’t know what happened to the team at the AFCON 2021 tournament.
Ghana performed poorly in the competition, failing to win any game as they were knocked out in the group stages. Paintsil was part of the squad.
On Star Connect, he said: “the 2021 AFCON was a tough time for the Black Stars. We had a good team but I don’t know what really happened. It is football and with football, anything can happen. We were all disappointed for what we showed in Cameroon.”
“Every player’s mindset and determination was to come out of from the group stage and go to the next level but unfortunately it didn’t happen. I was disappointed, the players were all disappointed and I know Ghanaians were also disappointed.”
Paintsil is looking to earn a spot in Ghana’s final 26-man squad for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
