It’s our new goal and I am sure that Ghana has a great future,” Stevanovic said on the eve of the game.Ghana beat Mali 2-0 in the group stages of the 2012 Nations Cup and another win will bring some honour.“We want to finish our job, want to win something for our country, Ghana. I think that we played very, very well against Zambia,” Stevanovic said.“We did fantastic, maybe it was the game of the tournament. And for that I think the third position is not bad and winning medals for our country is very important.”
