Wafu B Cup: Ghana coach Zito responds to criticism ahead of Burkina Faso final

Ghana coach Abdul Karim Zito is unperturbed by criticism of his team's perceived low quality of football displayed at the ongoing Wafu Better Cup of Nations in Benin despite making Saturday's final against Burkina Faso.

The Black Satellites are set to take on the young Stallions in the tournament climax, four days after edging Niger in a penalty shoot-out after a 0-0 draw beyond extra-time.

That was after a disappointing 1-0 loss to Cote d'Ivoire in their final group game and a hard-fought 1-0 triumph over Nigeria in the tournament opener.

"Everyone has his own opinion; this is a tournament that goes with winning and not about who plays good football," Zito said, as reported by the Ghana Football Association's official website.
