John Painstil (in white) gives moral support to the Ghanaian effort

Paintsil backs Ghana to claim CHAN glory
Defender John Paintsil is backing home-based
national team at the African Nations Championship
to win Saturday's final and offers to reward
them.

Paintsil visited the team on Thursday at the
team's hotel in Cape Town ahead of Saturday's
final against Libya.

"The final is the biggest and most important match
and from what I have seen, I believe they will win
and become champions," he told www.ghanafa.org.

"They have to remain determined and continue to
push till the final whistle."

The Ghana international who now plays for Cape
Town side Santos in the South African Division
One, says his visit was to motivate his
compatriots ahead of the final.

Paintsil also communicated to the team, a message
from the president of his club, who he indicated
has promised a reward for the players should they
lift the trophy.

"I have been watching them since the competition
begun and I must say that they have been really
impressive," Paintsil said.

"They were based in far away Bloemfontein and I
was always praying for them to make it to the
finals and come to Cape Town. I was so happy they
made it and it is important for me to visit them
and encourage the team ahead of the finals."

He paid glowing tributes to the team for their
resilience and determination.

"Their determination and resilience is incredible,
especially in the match against Nigeria. They
showed real determination even with a man down and
battled till they achieved the victory. That was a
true Ghanaian spirit; we never give up," he
added.

"Watching, it has not been an easy tournament but
the technical team and the players have done so
well to get our country this far."
