Black Stars head coach Otto Addo has heaped praise on Benjamin Asare following his impressive outing with the national team.
The Hearts of Oak shotstopper was involved in six games and managed to keep five clean sheets for the side.
Reflecting on Asare’s performances, Addo was happy with the way the goalkeeper showed class in post for the Black Stars,
“He’s really good. I think his strength is definitely on the line. Short blocking and on the line. There’s still room to improve, but I think he’s growing from game to game,” Addo told 3Sports.
“It was a close decision. The turning point was the last training when we invited him. He really trained well. He had this self-consciousness. He was pushing the players, organising, doing everything he could to win this training match. This really convinced us,” he revealed.
