Posted On Sunday, 20th January 2013

Emmanuel Agyemang Badu

Emmanuel Agyemang-Badu won the Samsung Fair Play Award in Ghana’s 2013 Africa Cup of Nations opener against DR Congo on Sunday.

The Udinese ace scored the first goal as the Black Stars drew 2-2 with the Leopards at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in Port Elizabeth.

The workaholic midfielder was picked by CAF Technical Study Group which appraises players in every match.

Badu made his Nations Cup debut in 2010 when the Black Stars finished second.

  1. GH FUO, THINK BIG!!! says:

    GHANA VS CONGO DR
    SOMETIMES, I DONT KNOW WAT AA IS THINKING
    PLAY THE 5 3 2 FORMATION. PLAY BREAK N PASS BALL. 2/3 TOUCHES ONLY FOR EVERY PLAYER…AT ALL TIMES
    IN THE FIRST HALF, U COULD VISIBLY SEE THAT GYAN NEEDS HELP. HE NEEDS SOMEONE TO DO GIVE N GO!
    THE MIDFIELD IS NON EXISTENT, AND DEREK IS NOT DISCIPLINED. DEREK DOSENT FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS. HE IS USELESS!
    THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR DEREK ARE VERY SIMPLE…
    A. BREAK/STOP ATTACKING ADVANCES OF OPPONENTS INTO THE GH HALF
    B. RELEASE THE BALL TO THE WINGERS OR THE $TRIKERS AND REST. I REPEAT, NO BACK PASSES!
    THIS ISNT WAT DEREK WAS DOING. HE WAS CAUGHT TRYING TO BE A STAR ON THE FIELD. HE RARELY TRIES TO STOP OPPONENTS ATTACKS INTO THE GH HALF.
    ON THE OCASSION THAT HE DOES, DEREK IS SEEN HOLDING UNTO THE BALL LIKE HE THINKS HE IS MARADONNA OR MESSI. IDIOT, JUST WIN THE BALL AND PASS IT
    I TOLD U TO LEAVE DEREK ALONE. NOW U SEE?

    I DONT SEE ANY URGENCY, AND SERIOUNESS WITH THE TEAM, YET
    THEY R NOT URGENT IN FORCING THE ISSUE. THE BEST PLAYERS THUS FAR HAS BEEN BADU, WAKASSO, AKAMINKO, FATAU
    ASAMOAH IS LEAKING THE LEFT BACK AT TIMES. OUR 4 N 5 PLAYERS NEED TO BE AWAKE AT ALL TIMES IN THE 18YARD BOX WHEN THE OPPONRNTS ARE ATTACKING
    AA IS NOW PAYING THE PRICE FOR NOT CALLING NATURAL LEFT BACKS LIKE DAVID ADDY AND NANA ASARE
    WHY DONT U USE KISSI BOATENG, HUH? U KNOW KISSI BOATENG IS NOT UP TO STANDARD SO WHY DID U EVEN CALL HIM FOR THIS TOURNAMNT?
    THE TEAM IS NOT DISCIPLINED. LOOK AT THE NUMBER OF CARDS GH RECEIVED?
    HW3, AFFUL CANT PLAY THE 3. THE CONGO DR PLAYERS ARE RUNNING PAST HIM LIKE WATER.
    START AFFUL ON THE 2 AND SIT DOWN PAINSTIL TILL THE LATTER STAGES OF THE SECOND HALD. PAINSTIL DID A GOOD JOB AT HOLDING THE RIGHT BACK SPOT.
    AA BETTER PUT WAKASSO N KISSI BOATENG AT THE LEFT BACK. MOVE KASA TO ATTACKIN MIDFIELDER.
    I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY BOYE WAS ALLOWED TO START. AA, SHOULD USE AKAMINKO AND AWAL AS STARTERS INSTEAD
    THIS IS A WOEFUL PERFORMANCE. IM DISAPPOINTED. WE CANT GO ANYWHERE IS OUR DEFENCE MAKES CARELESS MISTAKES LIKE THIS..TWEAAAA!
    STRIKERS/attackers win you a match, DEFENDERS win you a tournament.
    PLAY THE 5 3 2 FORMATION. PLAY BREAK N PASS BALL. 2/3 TOUCHES ONLY…AT ALL TIMES
    GYAN IS A FOOLISH STRIKER. HE HAS NO KILLER INSTINCT INFRONT OF THE NET. ANY STRIKER WHO CANT SMELL BLOOD INFRONT
    OF THE NET IS USELESS, IMPOTENT STRIKER!

    WHY ARE THE NAMES ON THESE FOOLISH TYE N DYE PUMA JERSEYS IN SMALL CAPS. I WANT TO KNOW WHY? GFA, DID PUMA GIVE US A DISCOUNT TO HVE
    OUR NAMES IN SMALL LETTERS OR NOT? ATROCIOUS JERSEYS FROM PUMA. AFCON HAS TURNED INTO A PUMA FASHION SHOWCASE….FOOLISH GFA!
    NYANTAKYI NEEDS BINOCULARS NOT GLASSES, BCOS HE STILL CANT SEE SHIT!

    • Nii Kwatei says:

      Don’t use capital letters all the time man. Your message will get across without Capslock on. And also try to work on your interpunction.
      However i do agree with most of your statements: Derek out, Annan in!

  2. Union Leader says:

    Commitment and Dedication are two words to descibe you. You together with Dauda were superb today not forgeting Boye. Mother Ghana is proud of you. Keep up with the Good work and your hard work will not be in vain. Majority of the players had a woefully bad day in the office. They need to lift up their game. They know themselves. I can mention names but I won’t. We certainly have to defeat Mali in the next game to have any real chance of progressing into the next round. How I wish Dede was in the team! But there’s no point crying over spoilt milk. Its certainly not beyond you guys. You can still rise to the occassion. Go Black Stars,Go !
