Ghana Under-23 coach Malik Jabir says poor preparation was the cause of his team’s lackluster showing against Senegal in the opening 2015 All Africa Games in Brazzaville on Sunday.
The Ghanaians struggled against their West African counterpart as the two teams shared the spoils at the Alphonse Massamba Debat Stadium in the Congolese capital.
Ghana goalkeeper Erci Ofori Antwi stood in-between Senegal victory as he delivered fabulous saves to save the blushes of the Black Meteors.
And Ghanaian coach Malik Jabir wasted no time in blaming poor preparation for the jerky start.
“We didn’t prepare well, two months preparations, we couldn’t play enough friendly games, we even wanted to play Ashanti Gold in a friendly match but it couldn’t happen,” he told Joy Fm.
The Black Meteors will next take on perennial rivals Nigeria in their second group B game.
