The Vice President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) Mark Addo says the Black Stars will feel free to play in Angola than there were at Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Thursday.
He believes the pressure of the expectant fans in Kumasi affected how the Black Stars played in the 1-0 win over the Palancas Negras in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier.
Ghana will travel to Luanda for the second leg on Monday. Mark Addo is confident playing away from home will give the players more freedom to play.
“The balance was a little bit off but latter when the changes were made, the team settled,” he told Asempa FM.
“I think you saw glimpses of what the team did in Qatar. When we go to Angola, the pressure will be a little off and the players will be more free to play their game.
“If Angola also want the win, it means they have to come out, then we will be in a position to exert ourselves in the game.”
The win means Ghana leads Group E with seven points from three games and will face Angola in the reverse fixture on Monday in Luanda.
