The first one, two or three times is to get a feel and see how it goes — Joseph Anang

"I was very happy because it’s my job to help the team out, and in a penalty shootout it was just my time to shine, and I think I did that."

"We’re really buzzing at the moment; 3 points clear at the top of the table, we’re all very excited. If we keep working hard, why can’t this carry on?"

"The coaches focus more on players playing in big leagues or against decent opponents."

"I didn’t go into it thinking I might get a chance. But I’m ready if the chance comes."

"I visit Ghana every time, and I am ever ready to honour any call-up from the Black Stars. I know the right time will come, and I believe in the technical team. They are doing a fantastic job."

"It gives me more motivation, 100 per cent, because we have had similar journeys and come from similar backgrounds as well."
