Ghana head coach, Otto Addo says he trusts his current squad to put up a good performance against Nigeria.
The Black Stars are scheduled to take on the Super Eagles later today in an international friendly match.
Speaking in his pre-match interview, Coach Otto Addo said the Black Stars know how to play against a Nigerian side that has so much quality.
“I think we have observed them well, we know what to expect from them. They have really, really strong and experienced players, even though I guess not all of them are here. I think they have a very, very strong squad. We expect them to be very hard to break against the ball but also with the ball, which you saw at the African Cup of Nations, they are really, really good in offensive transmissions, they have fast players on the wings, tall players upfront who can hold the ball no matter who comes, with a really, really solid back chain so it’s going to be tough.
“But we know what we can do and we know how to play against such a host and even though they went to the final, they showed in some matches that they are vulnerable so anything can happen. I am just hoping that we get a good start and we can end this game as the winning team,” Coach Otto Addo said as quoted on the website of the Ghana FA.
The friendly between Ghana and Nigeria will kick off at 16:00gmt.
