Black Stars coach Kwesi Appiah believes his team have enough quality to win the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations. 

It has been 35 years since Ghana won the Nations Cup and there is increasing on the current generation to bury that hoodoo.

Appiah was in-charge at the 2013 finals in South Africa where the team finished fourth- losing to Mali.

But on three occasions, the Black Stars were losing finalists at the tournaments in 1992, 2010 and 2015.

''Yes, I think we have the quality players to win the tournament but it does not come out of the blow that once you have a good team you should win a tournament,'' he told Kumasi-based Kessben FM.

''I must commend Prez Akufo-Addo for starting this project now to help the team win the tournament. If all stakeholders play their role very well it is when the nation can challenge the technical team to win the trophy.

''It is important to go to the tournament with a vision and mindset to clinch the ultimate.''
