Ghana Head Coach Chris Hughton has been sharing his thoughts on the Black Stars’ readiness for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations Matchday 4 qualifier against Angola on Monday.
The former Norwich City, Tottenham Hortspur, Brighton and Hove Albion and Newcastle United manager is aiming for his second win on the bounce after leading the Black Stars to a 1-0 win against Angola on Thursday.
In this interview with ghanafa.org, Chris Hughton discusses the quality of Angola, the absence of Andre Ayew, Alexander Djiku, Denis Odoi and Mohammed Salisu.
“Their absence is a loss to the team because they are not only players in the squad but they are players who have been around and been part of the squad for a while. But this is International football and this is why you have a squad prepared and always if its starters like in particular Denis Odoi and Alexander Djiku – both started then this is where you have a squad and it’s always an opportunity for somebody else,” said the gaffer.
