He said that the players have renewed self-belief and trust the Milovan Rajevac to lead them.

“I think that the team has been very focused," he said.

"Our resolve is to get the team to a level where Ghanaians want, so when the team won 3-1, it gave us a new level of energy.

"The boys began to have self-belief and I’m not surprised that they gave us a discipline performance. I have been very impressed,” he added.
