Black Stars coach, Milovan Rajevac has indicated his satisfaction with the performance of all the players in their friendly with Tanzania despite the absence of players like Essien, Mensah and Muntari.
"I liked the spirit of the team and we have a big group that we can make selections from. It was important for me to see them play," he said when asked about his opinion on the friendly game.
And as the coach looks up to the next challenge, he has revealed that events back home in Serbia has really lifted him after hearing news about the progress made by his former team, FK Borac in the UEFA-Cup competition.
His last club before taking up the Ghana appointment managed to come from a goal down in Bulgaria to complete an aggregate victory over PFC Lokomotiv Solia and reach the UEFA Cup first round. Milovan Rajevac guided them to an emotional 1-0 victory in the first leg.
"That is good news. I am happy because the work we started is still going on well. The team has done a lot within this short time. I like the character of the team," the Black Stars coach said about the progress made by his former team.
The Borac progress is history now as Rajevac bids to lead Ghana to both the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations and FIFA World Cup.
"I was happy with what I saw against Tanzania. We missed some regular players there but against Libya, this is a big game and we expect to have everyone available," he revealed.
"It's an important game for us and we would take it very serious like the previous games."
"That's (match with Libya) a game I want to win. It's very important that we win that game and I would put in everything to make it happen," he said.
The Black Stars won the game by 3-0 in the first leg, but the Libyans looked a very decent side, with some quick runs and glorious opportunities wasted.
