He explained that though Comoros has not won a game yet, they will be a tough nut for the Black Stars.
“Comoros has not been an easy opponent for us, we’ve played them before. Even if we get a lone goal, I’m happy. The winning is important but even if we don’t win this game and qualify it will give us some sort of reflection,” Nii Lante said on GhOne.
According to him, it will be better if the Black Stars return home to save the country from further embarrassment to plan for the future.
He said, “But if we get the chance as the best 3rd placed team and there is another embarrassment, what do we do?”
