Godwin Attram, assistant coach of Ghana's Black Meteors, has expressed unwavering confidence in the team's preparations as they gear up for the upcoming 2023 U-23 African Cup of Nations.

The tournament, set to be hosted by Morocco, will serve as a crucial opportunity for the team to secure qualification for the highly anticipated Olympic Games.

The draw for the U-23 AFCON has placed Ghana in Group A alongside formidable opponents, including the host nation Morocco, Congo, and Guinea.

Despite the challenging nature of their group, Coach Attram remained unperturbed and spoke about the team's determination during an interview with Happy 98.9FM.

Acknowledging the perception that Group A is tough due to the strong opponents, Coach Attram emphasized the team's resilience and confidence. He highlighted their remarkable qualification achievement, particularly their victory over Algeria in the qualifiers.

” We defeated a tough country like Algeria in the qualifiers and we’d be coming up against tougher opponents but are ready. Our ultimate is to qualify for the Olympic Games in Paris and we’re putting in the adequate preparations,” he added.
