Former goalkeeper of the Black Stars Richard Kingston has said that he was better than all three goalkeepers selected for the 2014 world cup hosted by Brazil.
The Black Stars at the 2014 Mundial failed to live up to expectation and the retired goalkeeper says he was disappointed when the then coach of the team, Kwesi Appiah overlooked him.
Before the tournament head, Kwesi Appiah named Adam Kwarasay, Fatau Dauda, and Stephen Adams as goalkeepers in his final 23-man squad.
But the former safer pairs of hand in an interview with Angel FM in Kumasi say he was better than the entire goalkeeper selected for the tournament.
“Among the three goalkeepers selected for the 2014 world cup, I deserve more than them because I was the only Ghanaian goalkeeper who was playing active football”
“Low and behold the coach dropped me without any reason. Before the tournament, I helped Balikesirspor to qualify to the premier in Turkey. Sometimes I feel pains” he said.
Richard Kingston was an integral member of the Black Stars squad that reached the quarter-finals of the 2010 FIFA world cup held in South Africa.
