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.
