Ghana vs Togo on 8th February
By Peterking Quaye – The first test for Ghana’s new coach and proof that the heavy sums of money dished out for him is worth it comes off this next week with a friendly match with Adebayor’s Togo . Goran Stevanovic’s squad to face Togo in an international friendly next week Tuesday has been announced.
A 19-man squad would represent the Black Stars in the game in Antwerp, Belgium on 8 February as Ghana plays the Hawks in their first fixture of the New Year which would also be Stevanovic’s debut as head coach.
