Captain Asamoah Gyan has refused to single out any single Ghana player for special praise at the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations.

The Al Ain ace has received probably most of the praises for his last-gasp winner against Algeria which restored Ghana's chances of progression in the tournament.

Rookie Daniel Amartey has also been lauded for his assured performances in the Black Stars defence.

But Asamoah Gyan says the team's heightened performance is as a result of team work and not the sole efforts of individual players.

"For me every player is important in the Ghana team," he said.

"Anybody who has been given the opportunity is ready to die for the nation. That is what I believe in."

Ghana will qualify for the quarter finals of the 2015 AFCON with an expected win over South Africa on Tuesday.

    Avram Grant make sure that Jordan Ayew do not get place in your starting first 11. he is a pieces of shit and not good of cause. Selfish and self made player who plays alone for the whole stadium to see him. Bad boy as he is. Accam or Kwesi Appiah should add to help Gyan.If Grant makes a mistakes to play that good for nothing player Ayew Jordan then bad luck. Change him change him.

    Yes you are right Obaayaa. Actually Jordan Ayew makes a lot of awkward mistakes. He plays selfish a lot. His not like his elder brother.In my opinion Jordan is not a tapical striker but attacking midfielder. I quite impressed so much about Mubarak Wakaso and Solomon Asante especial Wakaso who gave nice passe for Gyan to finished clinical last minute.Sometimes coaches can be foolish for making selections that always throw them out of handle their jobs as coaches. They knew good players whom can do the jobs for them but because of corruptions and names of the players or some of the players fathers played for the national teams thats why they always would allowed them to play selfish. I cant see why Jordan had been selected for this tournament good for nothing lad shiaaaaaa Aputuooooo France negger boy to Black stars
