We’ll continue from where we left off against Algeria - Grant
The Israeli is optimistic that the Black Stars can
build upon the 1-0 win over Algeria as they face
South Africa Tuesday

Ghana coach Avram Grant is ready to step up the
accelerator against South Africa on Tuesday after
the 1-0 win over Algeria.

The former Chelsea boss is convinced his charges
have what it takes to see off Bafana Bafana and
book a place in the last-eight.

“The key is to keep our momentum and composure
because the most important thing in this
tournament is to learn from the last game because
the most important is the next game,” Grant told
the media on Monday.

“I think if you see the team in the last game,
they showed a lot of mentality, a lot of mental
strength and in the second half [against Algeria]
also we were the better side and scored in the
last moment so I hope that we continue like
this.”

He added: “I have said it before it will be very
difficult playing against South Africa. In most of
the moments they played fantastic football.

“And we know it will be very difficult for us
but it is also always our target to make it
difficult for our opponent.”

Ghana need a win to qualify for the next round
whilst a draw could also see the four-time African
champions through depending on the results of the
Algeria and Senegal game.
