Ghana defender Denis Odoi has issued a warning to his teammates, urging them to avoid repeating mistakes as they prepare to face Mozambique in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).
Ghana, currently with just one point in Group B, is set to play against Mozambique in their final group stage match, with hopes of advancing to the knockout stages still alive.
The Black Stars experienced missteps in their previous two games, including a late collapse against Cape Verde and individual errors leading to a draw against Egypt.
Odoi highlighted the importance of avoiding mistakes, citing miscommunication and individual errors from previous matches. He emphasized the need for the team to stay focused and maintain concentration throughout the upcoming crucial encounter against Mozambique.
“If we lose, we do not lose as individuals, we win together and we lose together. I don’t think it is due to the pressure. At this level, you make certain mistakes,” the right-back said.
“In the upcoming game, we have to try and avoid the small mistakes and be very ready and focused throughout the game.”
Chris Hughton’s men are hopeful a win on Monday, January 22, will be enough to take them through to the last 16.
