David Accam: Ghana winger opens up on 2014 World Cup snub

Hammarby forward David Accam has shed light on his exclusion from Ghana's final squad for the 2014 World Cup.

After bursting onto the scene just ahead of the global showpiece in Brazil with a run of fine performances for Swedish side Helsingborgs, the winger was first a surprise inclusion in Milovan Rajevac's provisional squad for the tournament.

His hopes of completing a sensational season with an appearance at the World Cup, however, ended in disappointment as he fell among the casualties as the Serbian coach whittled the Black Stars' squad down to 23 after a pre-tournament friendly fixture against the Netherlands.
