Football pitches in Ghana need to be improved – Medeama SC coach

-

Medeama SC coach, Nebojsa Kapor has expressed his concerns about the state of football pitches in Ghana.

His criticism followed his team’s narrow 1-0 victory over Legon Cities at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium on Matchday 2 of the 2024/25 Ghana Premier League.

Medeama secured the win thanks to a first-half goal from Mamudu Kamaradin.

After the match, the Bosnian coach expressed frustration with the quality of the pitches, calling on authorities to make improvements.

Kapor compared the Legon Cities stadium unfavourably to other facilities like Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi, and those in Accra and Cape Coast.

“Like Baba Yara Stadium (Kumasi), Accra and Cape Coast stadia, the Legon Stadium is also bad. Pitches in Ghana should be better.

“The ground should be better. This is something where there is a very big room for Ghana to improve.

Medeama SC, currently leading the Premier League, will face Basake Holy Stars at the Crosby Awuah Memorial Stadium on Friday, September 27.

Meanwhile, the Confederation of African Football (CAF) has banned Baba Yara Stadium due to its poor playing surface.

As a result, the Black Stars will now play their upcoming Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier against Sudan on neutral ground.
