Badu credits teammates for AFCON MVP
Posted On Thursday, 24th January 2013
Badu redirects individual praise to entire Black Stars team
Ghana midfielder Emmanuel Agyemang-Badu has hailed his teammates for winning two consecutive awards at the 2013 Nations Cup.
The 22-year-old put in another solid display in the 1-0 win over Mali on Thursday.
He was adjudged the official Man-of-the-Match by assessors after the Black Stars posted their first win of the tournament against the Eagles.
The Udinese midfielder’s individual effort in the competition has now earned him back-to-back awards following picking up the Fair Play prize in the group opener against DR Congo.
The ex Berekum Arsenals player has been enjoying tremendous plaudits and praise for his performances.
He has however been quick to redirect all the praises to the entire Black Stars team.
“I feel very good, very proud but it wasn’t only my effort, it was from my teammates as well,” he told MTNFootball.com.
“We thank God for getting the three points we were after (against Mali).”
On whether another Man-of-the-Match performance should be expected from him in the final group game against Mali, Agyemang-Badu said: “I am just trying to do my best for the nation so whoever emerges the best player or scores for me is fine, it is the win that is more important.”

Zambians shud watchout for the super eagles tomorrow. They goin to masaca. Hope u saw the splended perfomance from the black stars. Lol
GH VS MALI!
WE MUST BUILD MORE ON OUR 2 TOUCH AND PASSING ACCURACY. ESPECIALLY IN AND AROUND THE 18 YARD BOX.
our PLAYERS LACK DISCIPLINE
TOO MANY UNECESSARY TACKLES. TOO MANY YELLOW CARDS. IT WILL HAUNT US LATER OOOOO
IN 2 GAMES, WE HAVE 6 YELLOW CARDS. IF WE BAG 3 YELLOW CARDS PER GAME IN THIS TOURNEY, WHERE WILL IT END US?
AA IS TOO HARDHEADED. CONTINUING TO USE AFFUL AT LEFTBACK IS A BAD IDEA.
IF AND WHEN WE MEET A BETTER OPPONENT, GH WILL PAY DEARLY
PAINSTIL SHOULD NOT BE STARTED ON THE RIGHT. BOYE, BOYE…WAT WAS HE THINKING? I TOLD U AA, NOT
TO START BOYE. DEFENDERS PROTECT THEIR GOALIES FROM HARM. WAT BOYE DID WAS VER VERY STUPID…
USE AFFUL ON THE RIGHT. WAKASSO OR KISSI ON THE LEFT/3. KASA AT THE 11. KASA HAS BEEN INACTIVE AND
USELESS IN MIDFIELD. USE HIM ON THE WING AT THE 11. LET HIM AND ATSU OVERLAP…
THE TEAM SHOULDNT BE TOO EXCITED. WE COULDNT SCORE FROM OPEN PLAY BUT THRU A PENALTY
GYAN WAS USELESS. EVEN THE WHITE COMMENTATORS SAID THEY WERENT IMPRESSED WITH GYAN THIS FAR.
KASA IN MIDFIELD WAS ALSO USELSS. THE SOLUTION: START CLOTTEY AHEAD OF GYAN. USE KASA ON THE 11,
ATSU ON THE 7 AS A SUB FOR ADOMAH
AA MUST STRIVE FOR PERFECTION!. STRIVE FOR PERFECTION!
well spoken.
