Ghana coach Milovan Rajevac
Kojo Addae-Mensah, sports analyst has said Black Stars Coach Milovan Rajevac has failed to live up to expectation following the exit of the Black Stars at the group stages of the ongoing Africa cup of Nations tournament in Cameroon.
The Blackstars on Tuesday suffered a humiliating group-stage exit at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations after the four-time champions were beaten 3-2 by debutants Comoros.
Speaking to Kwaku Nhyira-Addo on The Asaase Breakfast Show Wednesday(19 January) Addae-Mensah says the coach and the entire technical team must be sacked.
“He(Milovan Rajevac) should go, and not only him , the entire technical team should go, he has no business even sitting on the bench playing the World Cup qualifier.
“And the arrogance with which Benedict is telling us he answered those questions at the press conference am sorry to say Nhyira on your show , it pisses me off big time , he has absolutely no business being on the bench for the World Cup qualifier.”
Addae-Mensah added “He should , go we might as well play without a coach, and just allow the boys to plays and enjoy themselves, I mean if I was in charge , I will just say hey guys go , have fun play, enjoy yourselves play whatever you want to play and lets come home and we will go to this World cup and meet some team and gets more humiliated..”
I won’t resign
Ghana coach Milovan Rajevac has said he will not resign despite a humiliating group-stage exit in the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon on Tuesday (18 January).
Debutants Comoros beat the four-time champions by a 3-2 scoreline to record their maiden victory in the continental showpiece.
Speaking in a post-match interview, Black Stars coach Rajevac said his focus is the World Cup so he will stay on despite the heartbreak.
“I will not resign, because I came to take this team to the World Cup,” the Serbian said after the game.
“We didn’t start the game against Comoros how we wanted and we conceded an early goal. It was a poor start for us and and then the red card to Andre Ayew changed everything. I think Comoros deserved this win because they played very well than us.”
Ghana needed a win over the Islanders and hope for a next round stage of the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations tournament but succumbed to Comoros.
What happened
Ghana suffered a humiliating group-stage exit at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations after the four-time champions were beaten 3-2 by debutants Comoros.
El Fardou Ben Nabouhane put the islanders ahead early on, and Ghana then went down to 10 men when Andre Ayew was shown a straight red card.
Ahmed Mogni doubled the lead before the Black Stars fought back to make it 2-2. However, Mogni tapped in his second in the 85th minute to inflict Ghana’s first group-stage exit since 2006.
The result will go down as one of the biggest shocks in Nations Cup history as Comoros scored at the finals for the first time and then went on to record their maiden victory.Incredibly, the side ranked 132nd in the world now have a chance to reach the knockout stages as one of four best-ranked third-placed sides.
