Derek Boateng wants the Black Stars to kill off the game against Malawi in the first leg
By Patrick Akoto
Ghana midfielder Derek Boateng says they are anxious to kill off the 2013 African Cup of Nations qualifier against Malawi in the capital.
Andre Ayew and his brother Jordan as well as goalkeeper Adams Kwarasey arrive on Tuesday night to complete the list called up by head trainer Kwesi Appiah.
The Black Stars host The Flames at the Accra Sports stadium determined to rake in the goals to make the return leg a mere formality.
But that may not come on a silver platter against a plucky Malawian side who are eager to spoil the party but the Dnipro enforcer says his colleagues are desirous of killing off the tie in Accra.
“We cannot underrate them at all. In football you can never say a team is cheap. But we want to record a massive win to kill the game,” Boateng told reporters.
“You can see the seriousness on the faces of the players. It will be calamitous if we fail to qualify,”
“We cannot afford to disappoint our fans. I believe we have enough quality players to do the business.”
The team will fly to Monrovia to play Liberia in a friendly after Saturday’s game.

D blak *s shud harvest more goals so dat d 2nd leg ll b a walk over.
The last we played against Zambia and came out vanquished,i remember stephen tornado appiah saying some of the present day bs players talks too much before matches and went further to say that during their time,they hardly talks but always performs… true talk my legend!! Agyemany twitter badu,derek boateng are fond of talking big time ahead of clashes and i just wonder how big time players like them ll be raising such a huge expectations of ghanaians thereby putting alot of pressure on the entire team,mgt etc!! I can’t believe it anytime i hear these two guys talk ahead of important matches because i hardly see the likes of rooneys,messi,c. Ronaldos talking big time like these two players and almost always flopped when the time comes!!! Please in football,u can have a goodday and still not score and u can very a badday and a very poor game and still win some i ll advice derek to tone down his rhetorics whenever we are about to ply matches and rather concentrate on the task ahead because some of his colleague don’t like that and appiah is an example!! Viva the revolutionicon!!
I think D.Boateng has a point in wat he sud 4 us to kill of de game in accra bt we shld be mindful of wat malawi can also do.go ghana go blackstarz.
