Black Stars head coach, Chris Hughton, says the team will go through bad moments, like the 4-0 defeat to the USA to come out better.
The team was picked apart in 39 minutes at the Geodis Park in Nashville on Wednesday in an international friendly.
Poor defending and individual errors saw Ghana concede all four goals under 40 minutes in the second defeat of the October international break.
Speaking after the game, Hughton touted his longevity in the game and his ability to see good results coming after embarrassing defeats such as this.
“It is my responsibility to build this team. I have to work around some of the issues we’ve always had regards some players missing from the squad, trying to get consistency in the team and we will continue to strive to get the right formulas,” he told the press.
“I’ve also been involved in the game long enough to know that sometimes you go through what we regard as bad periods to come out better.”
The US took the lead in the 10th minute through Giovanni Reyna who picked on a poor clearance before Christian Pulisic added the second from the spot following a Gideon Mensah penalty.
Florian Balogun was then gifted the third for the USA following another series of poor defending in the 22nd minute.
Ghana went down by four in the 39th minute through a well-worked indirect free kick that was converted by Reyna for his brace.
