The media officer responsible for the Black Galaxies, William Bossman has said that the squad’s technical team will inspect the pitch and advise accordingly on how the players can avoid slipping on the field ahead of Saturday’s game against Niger.
It was noticed that during Ghana’s opening game against debutant Madagascar, several of the Black Galaxies players slipped during the course of the game, and one such slip led to a goal against Ghana.
The Black Galaxies are billed to face off with Niger at Miloud Hadefi Stadium in Oran on Saturday evening.
Bossman speaking ahead of the match insists that the team has found a solution to the phenomenon and will determine the type of boot the players will wear after the technical team has inspected the pitch.
He told Asempa FM that the pitch was freshly laid resulting in the slippage of the players. He added that the training pitches are different from the ones on which the competitive matches are played.
