Konadu demands Ghana improvement

Ghana coach Maxwell Konadu insists that their hopes of reaching the final of the GoTV Wafu Cup remains in their hands.

After suffering a 1-0 defeat to Benin, the home-based national team will need to beat Group A leaders, Burkina Faso on Monday and hope events in the other game between Benin and Sierra Leone go their way.

Sitting third on three points and one adrift the joint-top - Burkina Faso and Benin - Ghana are aware that their qualifying chances remain very slim.

But Konadu is not just giving up.

"I don't think it's over. Anything can happen in the next game. We need to prepare very well and and try to beat Burkina [Faso]," Konadu said.

"Apart from that we don't have a chance of moving to the final."

The winner of the group will progress to the final and meet the top side from Group B while the second placed team in each group will vie for third position.

Konadu, who is using the tournament as preparations for next year's African Nations Championship in South Africa believes his team will have to improve on their discipline.

"We have to work on our boys, physically and mentally. We have to psyche them very well. Some have been in this situation for quite too long time and at this level you can't just take the laws into your hands. We have psyche them and make sure it doesn't happen again.

"This is a preparatory tournament for us. The bigger picture is the one [CHAN] in South Africa," he said.
