Otto Addo has revealed that he had no reservations about Lawrence Ati-abilities Zigi’s as a goalkeeper for the Black Stars versus Switzerland.
Following the injuries to Richard Ofori and Joseph Wollacott, the St. Gallen shot-stopper is about to take over as Ghana’s starting goalie at the World Cup.
Despite playing very well for his club, Ati-Zigi tends to suffer when he is in post for the Black Stars, a move that does not win the hearts of Ghanaians.
But the head coach of the Black Stars has backed him following performance against Swizterland on Thursday.
“We knew that Zigi is good, and he did [well]. He plays regularly in Switzerland and gets very, very good remarks after each game. We monitor him so there was no concern at all,” Addo said.
“We knew before that the keepers we have at this level are inches apart. It’s not like somebody is that far away from the other so they are all at the same level. Sometimes it’s just little details.”
