“My goalkeeper let the team down” – WAFA coach criticizes Sabi Acquah in shaky win against Medeama

WAFA coach Dr Prosper Narteh Ogum criticized goalkeeper Ferdinand Sabi Acquah for his performance in his side’s hard-fought 5-4 victory against Medeama.

According to the University of Cape Coast lecturer, Sabi Acquah ‘my let the team down today  in the shaky win on Sunday. 

The Academy Boys nearly threw away a 4-0 first half lead as they had to fought hard to held on to win 5-4 in Sogakope in a match-day 7 fixture.

Medeama scored three second half goals to keep snapping at the heels of the home side and Ogum blames his shot-stopper.

”I can’t even comprehend. I mean goals from 30 metres, 25 yards and what have you. I don’t know what is wrong with him but they were poor decisions from him,” Ogum said in the post-match interview.

”Even shots are taken from 30 yards, 25 yards, 35 yards, I think as a goalkeeper you have a clear view of the ball and should be able to save the balls. I think my goalkeeper let the team down today. He had a very poor performance. He didn’t live up to the billing.

As to whether the mistakes by the youngster could cost him his No.1 position going into their next game, the University lecturer said: ”I think we will have an interaction with the goalkeepers trainer and we will pick it up from there.”
