Ghana ready for Zambia backlash- Boateng

Derek Boateng
Ghana midfielder Derek Boateng says they are ready to douse Zambia's fire in Saturday's 2014 World Cup qualifier. The Chipolopolo made a false start to their campaign losing 2-0 in Omdurman to Sudan while Ghana thumped Lesotho 7-0 at home.

It is expected that the African champions will stage a strong comeback against the Black Stars at the Levy Mwanawasa Stadium on June 9. But Boateng-who starred in midfield for Ghana against the Crocodiles-believes the 2010 World Cup quarter-finalists can thwart the efforts of their hosts.

''Yes of course we are ready and you can see the game we played against Lesotho shows how ready and prepared we are for Zambia," the FC Dnipro ace said. "We always say first things first and now that we are finished with Lesotho so we pray God helps us and gives us the strength to fight this battle."
