Legendary Ghana forward Dan Owusu has advised Black Stars coach Otto Addo to desist from late substitution ahead of the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
Ghana, who are returning to the global showpiece after missing out in Russia 2018 engaged in two international friendlies against Brazil and Nicaragua during the break.
The West African powerhouse lost 3-0 to Brazil and recovered to beat Nicaragua 1-0 on Tuesday in Spain through a strike from Abdul Fatawu Issahaku.
In an interview with Koforidua-based Bryt FM, the three-time Ghana Premier League goal king winner expressed displeasure about late substitution of the Black Stars coach and has therefore called on Otto Addo to desist from it.
“It’s too late to talk about replacing Otto Addo because we have limited time to the World Cup. His timing for substitution is bad, so I will advise him to desist from it. Waiting to make substitutions few minutes to full time can be deadly. As a coach, you need to know the time to make substitutions because it’s very essential” he said.
Ghana has been paired in Group H against Portugal, Uruguay and South Korea at the World Cup.
