Jordan Ayew when asked whether or not he would apologies to Ghanaians for the shameful performance, he said “you know we have a lot of players who are having their first Africa Cup of Nations and that is not easy. Because my first Africa Cup of Nations was in 2012 and for the first time it was difficult for me so I think we have got a lot of good players but we are building and bumps happens in life so we just have to stand up.
I hope Ghanaians will understand. I understand their frustration but we are all men and we play football and you have to stand up for any bumps you get so it’s all good."
