'The technical team did not manage games well'- Sports Minister blames Milovan Rajevac for poor AFCON

Published on: 27 January 2022

Minister of Youth and Sports, Mustapha Ussif, has blamed the technical team of the Black Stars then led by Milovan Rajevac for Ghana's poor Africa Cup of Nations. 

The Ghana Football Association has sacked the Serbian trainer following the team's abysmal display in Cameroon.

While discussing the team's performance in Cameroon, the minister pointed fingers at the technical team for Ghana's failure.

“Individually the Black Stars have quality players. So individually our national team have the players but as to whether they gel as a team is something that we all have to interrogate,” he said on the floor of Parliament.

“And that is why normally every team will have a technical team that will read and manage the team and we believe that this AFCON campaign, the technical team did not manage the games very well for our dear country.”

The Black Stars for the first time in the history of the Africa Cup of Nations failed to win a game, as they finished bottom of group C.
