After World Cup fiasco, GFA retains Kwasi Appiah as Black Stars coach

The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has retained Kwasi Appiah as the coach of the Black Stars.

The GFA made the disclosure at a post-World Cup press conference  in Accra Wednesday. 

GFA President Kwasi Nyantakyi, who made the announcement, said the decision to retain Appiah was taken by the FA's Executive Committee.

Nyantakyi said Appiah's immediate task would be to rebuild the Black Stars team and qualify for the African Cup of Nations tournament in Morrocco, which he said Ghana must win.

For his part, Appiah promised to build a new team, which he said would make Ghanaians proud in the future.

He apologised for the Black Stars poor showing in Brazil, pledging that the team will be back better and stronger.
