 Essien joined the Black Stars today Essien joined his team-mates in camp on Wednesday morning two days before the Black Stars game with the Elephants. The Chelsea midfielder has returned to fitness after suffering a hamstring injury but the Serbian is unsure of his match fitness. "For now his chances of playing Friday's game is 50-50, he might start the game, or come in the second half or might not play at all," Rajevac said. Essien's arrival means he will be available to feature for the Black Stars in Friday's game against Ivory Coast in Group B. Ghana's first scheduled game was cancelled in the wake of the attacks on the Togo team. Ghana, along with Ivory Coast and Burkina Faso, will only play two games in the group stage. |
