Black Stars coach Otoo Addo also blamed the referee for Ghana’s loss on Thursday, claiming the Europeans had the referee’s support.
He said: “The referee was not in our favour. I think you have to ask the ref. I have no proof of that. We were playing the ball and there was contact. I don’t know if they weren’t paying or if the VAR wasn’t paying attention. If you watch the replay, we played the ball, it was actually a foul against us.”

Speaking at a pre-match conference yesterday, Addo apologized for his comments, adding that he was hopeful that he would not receive any sanctions from FIFA.

“Until this moment we didn’t get any response (from FIFA), maybe I can use this scenario now to apologize if I was too rude but I was very emotional after the match. I hope they don’t fine me.”
