Accra Great Olympics’ Communications Director, Emmanuel Saint Osei, has raised serious concerns about Ghana’s national teams following the Black Meteors’ elimination from the 2023 U23 AFCON.
The team’s failure to advance in the tournament, with a disappointing draw against Guinea and a crushing defeat to Morocco, has dashed hopes of Ghanaian fans for Olympic participation in 2024.
“We always create the impression that all is well with our national teams, but all is not well,” he told Citi Sports.
“What i have studied in the past is that, we do not pay attention to details, including our coaches when it comes to tournaments.
“When we won our first match against Congo, for me it wasn’t the time for our Coaches to go and sleep, because Congo was a tough side, in fact all the teams we faced are better sides.
“So I was expecting that till the last whistle is blown, then we will have the opportunity to celebrate and do something else.
“Now every nation is playing football, not like in the past where we were running past nations with ease, so i think it is about time our technical handlers give details to football and ensure that every department of the game has the necessary attention applied.
“Look at the goals we conceded against Morocco, it is not something that should have happened.”
