Coach Kwesi Appiah has hailed the attitude of the Black Stars players after their first training session held on Tuesday.

Twenty-one officially started preparation as they get themselves ready to host the Harambee Stars on Saturday in their final Group F game at the Accra Sports Stadium.

Both teams have qualified for the tournament but Kwesi Appiah and his boys will be hoping to get a better result after losing by alone in the first leg in Kasarani.

After the training session on Tuesday, Coach Appiah told the media that he was excited by the positive attitude exhibited by players since regrouping in camp on Monday.

“The demeanour of the players is very good, each and everyone is comporting himself. As usual, everyone is giving his best which makes the job very difficult me in terms of selection.

“It’s important Ghana win every game we play, I believe Kenya has a very strong team and that the game would not be easy,” he added.

The team will train at the Accra stadium on Wednesday evening under floodlights to get accustomed to Saturday’s late kickoff and continue with preparation on Thursday afternoon and Friday morning.
