Head Coach of the Black Stars of Ghana ahwad of the game against Nicaragua on Tuesday has in his press conference commented on the absence of Thomas Partey.
The Ghanaian midfielder was granted permission to fly back to London for further assessment after he suffered an injury in the warm-up to the Brazil game.
Coach Otoo Addo believes the absence of the midfielder will not affect the team alot looking at the tactics he is likely to deploy in the Nicaragua game.
” With the tactics it doesn’t affect a lot because tactics involve style of play and players with such abilities so I think tomorrow’s game we will be okay. Hopefully Thomas will be healthy very, very soon. We didn’t want to take that risk in a friendly game to play him against Brazil but surely playing a player like him against a squad like Brazil would have been helpful”
Ghana will play NIicaragua at Estadio Francisco Artés Carrasco in Lorca on Tuesday, September 27, 2022.
