Ghana coach Appiah should be 'given the benefit of doubt' - Basigi

Renowned Ghanaian coach Yusif Basigi has called for support for Black Stars coach James Kwesi Appiah in the wake of the squad announcement for a 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying double-header later this month.

Last week, Appiah announced a 23-man roster for the November 14 and 18 clashes with South Africa and Sao Tome and Principe, respectively, in Group C.

The list featured seven debutants including the Spain-based duo of Real Valladolid's Mohammed Salisu and Real Mallorca's Iddrisu Baba, as well as 19-year-old Denmark-based midfielder Mohammed Kudus.
