The official beverage sponsors of the Black Stars, Guinness Ghana Breweries Limited have presented a cash support of GHS 1 million to the Senior National team as part payment of their three-year sponsorship agreement with the Ghana FA.

The cash boost comes just days before Ghana hosts Zambia in the deciding 2014 World Cup qualifier in Kumasi.
The event which took place at the premises of the plush M-Plaza Hotel at Ridge, a suburb of Accra had the Stars in attendance together with the Technical team and some executive members of the Ghana Football Association.
FA executive member George Afriyie was full of praise for the breweries giant and was confident that this donation was going to go a long way in motivating the lads get a result over the Chippolopolo of Zambia in that crucial World Cup qualifier on Friday.
Head Coach Akwasi Appiah also used the opportunity to reiterate the team’s desire in making the nation proud and called on all and sundry to back the lads on Friday to make qualification to Brazil a certainty.
Marketing Director of Guinness Ghana Breweries Limited Madam, Agnes Essah was full of pride at her company’s long and continued association with the Black Stars.
She used the opportunity to wish the team the best of luck and urged the boys to make the nation proud.
Ghana coach Akwasi Appiah in accepting the cash support alongside Ghana FA Executive Committee officials says the gesture has come at the right time as the Black Stars prepare to secure yet another victory for Ghana against Zambia.
