Ibrahim Tanko is a disgrace to Ghana football and FIFA.

He couldn’t even set up a descent defense for this game. All he knows is doing sakora and a shaping his moustache round.

On corner kicks - if the long balls aren’t helping, try short passes.

The positioning during corner kicks were poor. I may not know much about football but a sensible coach should teach the guys basic football. The black meteors are total trash pic.twitter.com/sWvNKteLyA

If the black meteors want to progress from the group, go and rewatch the game and copy the Moroccan team style of play. They were so perfect.

If this Goals scored by Moroccans was to be in our local league, the referees will disallow all cos they will say most of the goals are offside ????
