All hopes isn't lost at all for Ghana in the World Cup qualification we still have four games more to go.

The Egyptians haven't qualified for World Cup since 1990 and from the look of everything they want to qualify, the media and everybody is behind the team. But the question is "Is Ghana doing same". Well maybe there's a little problem with our preparations from the beginning but we're doing our best to take the team to Russia and we want more support from the fans".
