Ghana, once they decided to do away with Appiah as the coach of the Black Stars, moved swiftly to appoint Avram Grant, a former Chelsea coach and a proven tactician as their new coach. I believe in African coaches though and think that Ghana ought to have kept Appiah for the work he did. At the 2014 world cup, Ghana played good football but was rather unfortunate to have been drawn in a very tough group. Even then, they were the only team that drew with Germany; the team that would later demolish Brazil en route winning the world cup. If Ghana was to swap groups with Nigeria, I have no doubt that they would have qualified for the second round quite easily, judging by the quality of football they played. The key learning point for NFF here however is the decisive way which Ghana moved from one coach to another.
