Kwesi Appiah Targets To Win 2014 FIFA World Cup Finals
Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah has boldly declared he wants to win the 2014 Brazil FIFA World Cup finals.
The ex-national team captain became the first local trainer to guide the Black Stars to the mundial with a 7-3 aggregate win over Egypt in the playoff.
Appiah was an assistant to Serb Milovan Rajevac at the 2010 finals in South Africa where Ghana finished in the quarter finals.
�Automatically every team goes into the World with the intention of winning it so once we have qualified that�s my ambition,� Appiah is quoted by Accra-based Joy FM.
�It doesn�t matter the team we draw in the group stages, whatever group we fall in I always believe that we�ve got the capabilities and our players should be able to cope with it.
�If you�re thinking of not facing Spain or Brazil then why are you going to the World Cup, you should prepare yourself to face any team that comes your way.
�You always go to the World Cup with the intention of winning it so how can you go there when you are afraid of Brazil, Spain or whatever?.�
Ghana will know their Group opponents on 6 December when the draw is held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The four-time African champions played in the last two editions of the World Cup finals.
