Kwesi Appiah to keep faith with Fatau Dauda for Mali clash
Posted On Monday, 21st January 2013
Goalkeeper Fatau Dauda will be in post against Mali
By Patrick Akoto
Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah will keep faith with goalkeeper Fatau Dauda for Thursday’s crucial game against Mali.
The Ashantigold shot-stopper conceded two second half goals as the Congolese came from behind to sniff a point at the Nelson Mandela Bay stadium in Port Elizabeth.
The 26-year-old, who marked his first competitive start for the Black Stars put up a standout performance that has earned rave reviews back home in Ghana.
But after allowing two goals into his net, speculations have been rife the Ghana trainer could replace him with Adam Kwarasey.
But coach Appiah insists he has absolute trust in the former Okwahu United glovesman to remain in post.
“All the three goalkeepers are wonderful but only one can be in the post at a particular time,”
“I have decided to use Fatau at this point and I think he’s doing well. It doesn’t mean those on the bench are not good enough.
“All the goalkeepers’ have an equal chance of being in post. Let us support him.
Dauda has expressed his desire to make the number position his bonafide property.

WHERE ARE THE STUPID ZAMBIANS WHO KEPT MAKING NOISE HERE?HAVE THEY SEEN HOW ONLY TEN MEN ETIOPIANS SWINDLED THEM TODAY?THIS TEAM MAKING PROUD BEING CHAMPIONS?MY FOOT.THEY ARE YET TO MEET NIGERIA AND THE NEXT THEY ARE SHOWN THE EXIT.
FATAU PLAYED WELL. HOWEVER, I WAS SUPRISED HE COULDT READ THE BODY LANGUAGE OF THE DR CONGO PENALY KICK TAKER.
Mbonkan LOOKED OVER TO HIS LEFT 3 TIMES BEFORE HE TOOK THE PENALTY. SO U HAVE TO KNOW THAT HE WILL SHOOT RIGHT, AND HE DID.
FATAU MUST LOOK FOR SUCH BODY LANGUAGE SIGNS AND HE UST KEEP HIS EYE ON THE BALL. IF U CAN SEE THE BALL, U CANT GRAB IT.
Where are the Zambians Fans? The soo called Champions of Africa? Drawing with a 10 man Ethiopia. Hahaha I can’t stop laughing.
I like dauda. Ethiopians might be the team to beat in this tournament.

@ yuri I think you are a fooool. When they were allowing only foreign players to play you said they were taking bribes from them. And now that they are making a local play too you are criticizing stupidly. Do u even watch Ghana matches at all? Nonsense.
troy u re a big fool u no anything can u listern to urself…..nd who they bribe from foriegn players…….it is only ur stupid local players only want normally desterb bcos they re not call to bs……..stupid fool u have anything to say quite…..:@alleeey…sheep
Am very surprise a team first keeper will be change becos of a silly mistake he made during a friendly match. Joe hart allow sweden to score england with some cheap goals but he is still their no. 1. Am sure the still bribe and juju still going on in blackstars camp. With these team ghana can’t make it to the semi.
Mali win ghana 2-0 again…trust me!!
hei doo(kwesi appiah)you better keep your mouth shut overthere.where were you when congolese equalising all the ga damn two goals?you are just talking bull crabs just to convince the masses in order to embazzle the ghana’s money.
