Our world cup group is very difficult - Eric Bekoe

Published on: 27 October 2022

Eric Bekoe, a former Asante Kotoko striker has stated that Ghana’s World Cup group is a tough one and the technical team should plan very well.

The 2022 World Cup will kick off on November 20 and end on December 18th. The Black Stars of Ghana is in Group H with Portugal, South Korea, and Uruguay.

Ghana will start its World Cup campaign against Portugal on 24th November at the Education City Stadium.

According to Eric Bekoe who was a prolific goalscorer in his playing days Ghana lacks quality and our attack is not sharp enough to destroy any team.

“It is very tough…it is a very tough group the reason why I am saying it is a tough group is because we look at the quality and depth that we have then you use that to judge. Look at their player lets go by their clubs and their performance week in week out are they bench warmers, are they playing regular? These are all the things that fundamentals that we should check before we motivate ourselves," he said on Ernest Brew Smith TV on youtube as monitored by footballghana.com

"You see Ghana we have always believe in “God will do it” the white man too God created him but proper preparations when it comes you are rest assured of results. This time I can tell you that our journey (to Qatar) what is in our minds are “God will help us” Bruno Fernandes is playing week in week out. One player that I will say Ghana brag with to say he plays at the highest level is Thomas Partey.

"Jordan is tactically good when you know how to use Jordan. Why is it that the coach is not benching him over there but when he comes to Ghana he can’t perform? So it tells you that maybe we are not using the boy at the right place he can’t be able to function. Today when Asamoah Gyan said he wants to come me I supported him why should I support him can Ronaldinho go to Brazil and say that he wants to play for the Brazil national team because the players are not performing? Something is lacking and the man is saying he has the antedote to that thing and when he is ready physically that he wants to come back and he is well prepared he can do it.

"But whiles we are talking and our strikers are playing in the top leagues…right now one person that we can brag with is the William brothers up front they are the only ones we cannot brag with anyone again. Because the team we are going to face their players are playing week in week out playing Champions League…Ronaldo that we saying he is now old when he meets us he will mafia us. Look at the goalkeeping aspect the likes of Fatawu who saved his free kick and other things now we are getting a certain Wollacott so it is a worry,”
