Iñaki Williams Arthuer, La Liga Player of the Month for January 2019, lost in his debut appearance for the Black Stars of Ghana against Brazil on Friday, September 23rd, 2022.
Otto Addo had to substitute Iñaki Williams at the start of the second half after Kamaldeen Sulemana had a bad start against Brazil last night. Salisu Mohammed also joined Iñaki as new players making their debuts at the same time.
Iñaki, who claimed on July 5, 2022, that he will be ready for the African Cup of Nations in time for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, lost his debut game but has acknowledged that he will get Ghana to the top.
The striker, who joined Athletic Bilbao in 2013/2014, had impressive statistics when he got the opportunity to play against Brazil at the Stade Océane in Le Havre, France, and this proves his experience in club football.
Many Ghana Black Stars enthusiasts and soccer commentators would not be shocked if they witnessed a goal from the former Spanish international with the motive of scoring a La Liga goal for Athletic Club just one week before his much-anticipated debut for Ghana.
He had three shots on goal against the Selecao, but fascinating joint shots on goal with Richarlison, who scored twice in the game, but two of his attempts were blocked by Brazilian defenders.
Iñaki also surpassed inexperienced striker Afena-Gyan in terms of touches last night. He had fourteen touches of the ball against the Cremonese striker’s thirteen.
In an interview with Ghana’s TV3 following the game last Friday night, Iñaki indicated that the game against Brazil was bad, even though his parents were pleased to see him play for Ghana.
Since he is pleased to join other team members of Ghanaian heritage, he emphasised that he would need to give it his all to help Ghana reach the top. His dance at camp, which went viral on social media, can help fans sense his joy as a member of the squad.
Iñaki told 3Sports, “Yeah, it was not a good match because Brazil is a good team. I believe the second half of Ghana will be Ghana, and I am very happy to stay here; I am very happy, my parents are very happy, my grandfather is very happy, Ghana is jumping for me, and I am very happy. The match is not good, but I am going to put everything to put Ghana at the top.”
