Keshi is still the best coach in Africa – Ghana coach Bloemfontein (S/Africa)- Coach Maxwell Konadu of Ghana says Super Eagles coach, Stephen Keshi, is still the best coach in Africa. This he noted was in spite of the defeat of the Super Eagles, 4-1 on penalties, by his team in the African Nations Championship (CHAN) semi final match. With the defeat, Ghana would now meet Libya which qualified at the expense of Zimbabwe while Nigeria would have to fight for the third place with the Zimbabweans that had earlier lost to Libya. Konadu told journalists on Thursday in Bloemfontein, South Africa, that Keshi had achieved a good record of nurturing local players and exposing them to international match situations. “I do not think this game will change his status in Africa. I know Nigerians are behind him. They all respect him and what he has done with the local team. “We know how African football is and I had said that he (Keshi) is the kind of man we need in African football. “We all follow his steps and we are all learning from him as well. This is just but one match, I do not think, the outcome has changed his status,’’ he said. Keshi also told NAN that his players did very well, in spite of losing to Ghana in the semifinals. “This team has only been together for about six weeks. I am beginning to fall in love with them. And I know if I stay six months with them, they will become what I want them to be.
