AFCON 2015: Algeria Coach says he has no special plans for Ghana’s Gyan

Algeria coach Christian Gourcuff says his team will have no special

plans for the return of Ghana captain Asamoah Gyan.

Speaking to the press ahead of their clash on Friday in Mongomo,

Gourcuff admitted to the importance of Gyan to the Ghanaian team.

“We all know how important Gyan is to the Ghanaian team and it is good

for them that he is returning but we are not going to prepare anything

special to accommodate his return.”

Leading group C after their 3-1 win over South Africa, Gourcuff

emphasised the need to reduce the defensive mistakes that plagued his

team in the first half of that game if they are to continue their good

form.

“I watched the videos of the game against South Africa and we made too

many mistakes. We must cut them all out against an opponent who is

also very strong.”

With all his players training on Thursday, the Desert Foxes have a

full squad of players to pick from on Friday as they seek to qualify

automatically with a win.
