King Faisal owner Karim Gruzah insists Black Stars won't qualify for 2018 World Cup, warns 'mathematicians' to forget

Published on: 22 November 2016

King Faisal owner Karim Gruzah has ruled out Ghana's chances of qualifying to the 2018 World Cup in Russia, urging local 'mathematicians' to zip their mouth.

The tough-talking veteran football administrator claims the four-time African champions cannot qualify to the global showpiece.

The Black Stars find themselves in a difficult position after losing 2-0 against Egypt last week, leaving them third on the table with a single point from two games.

‘’We should forget about the world cup and concentrate on the Gabon 2017 AFCON.”Alhaji Grusah told Kumasi based Abusua FM.

‘’Why should we deceive ourselves that Congo and Uganda can go to Egypt and surprise them. It only fools who think Egypt will lose all the remaining four matches. It left with only six points for them to qualify.

"I will put ninety percent blame on the FA , the ministry and the media because when the two were misbehaving, it was the media that supported that’’.

He added: ‘’I used to respect and support Avram Grant but now I don’t support him. Ghanaians lack the 3Ds that is determination, discipline and dedication’’.
