 Was wondering whether sky will refer to them as "JoJo Wollacott's" Ghana as we all know of the media's insistence on giving African teams the prefix of their most famous English based player (eg "Mo Salah's"Egypt,"Aubameyang's" Gabon etc) :)

I think Thomas Partey might have Jojo beat in terms of name recognition.

Doesn't look more than about 1,000 in the ground in total.

Its like watching a Premier U23 game, lots of athleticism and pace and devoid of almost all quality.

Really poor stuff, this. Ghana have obviously not heard of Garnerball with JoJo launching it.

No major surprise when your first team goalie plays in league 2. Standard of African Cup of nations is shocking. Don’t tell Ian Wright I said this as he will accuse me of being racist.

It’s not JoJo that’s stinking the place out, though.

I think Swindon would probably outplay and outpass both of these sides.

Also its not racist to state an obvious fact, irrelevant of their skin colour or ethnicity.

One of the worst 45 minutes I’ve seen for a long time - especially so for international level. Neither side have anything about them.

I do like the Moroccan player called Louza, though. Great name for a sportsman.

No quality on either side TBF, this is worse than Luxembourg vs San Marino.

I had the Senegal vs Zimbabwe game on earlier in the background. Stadium even more empty and game just as shit.

Jojo beaten with pretty much the first shot on target all game, unstoppable though.

maybe he'll be home sooner rather than later

though a bit hard to judge ward as he's not had a run of games.

Reasonably good save there.

I worry in regards to Wards kicking i will not lie, his reluctance to knock the ball over the press or straight out of touch i think causes a lot of hesitation in the defence

agreed shrivvy, just think a run of games is needed to be sure.

which he's going to get I assume
