Daniel Afriyie Barnieh, the talisman of Black Mateors and Accra Hearts of Oak, has boldly urged fans to Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Sunday, October 31st, 2022.
The Black Meteors will approach the game with a 2-1 advantage, and Daniel Afriyie Barnieh, who drove the team to victory with a brace in the first leg at the Estadio du Zimpeto, believes their away success has relieved some of the burdens, but they must be cautious not to become complacent. The team hopes to play in front of thousands of fans to inspire them to victory over mediocrity.
For several national teams, he has been in superb form. He was instrumental to Annor Walker in helping the Black Galaxies defeat Nigeria and earn a CHAN Qualification.
He contrasted the atmosphere to when Kadiogo surprised Kotoko at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in an interview with Peace FM after the Black Meteors arrived in Kumasi, and he claimed they would take a lesson from it to avoid complacency.
According to Barnieh, “We are thrilled. It’s not easy to pick up three points from away games in African championships. We went into the game with the mindset that we should at least get a point, but by the grace of God, we were able to get all three. It has also lessened our stress levels, which makes us extremely happy. Recently, Asante Kotoko lost to Kadiogo after choosing an away win, but the team came and won.”
The prolific striker chose the lone foreign-based player who had not seen a heated atmosphere in Kumasi because he was very sceptical about the fans’ reaction to a lost game at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium.
Barnieh stated, “I think we are all here are local guys. Only one player is foreign-based, which is Philemon Baffour. So the incident that happened in Kumasi, if we haven’t seen it, at least we have heard a bit about it. It tells us not to be complacent, and not to relax because anything can happen on the field of play. “
The energetic striker, who was very motivated to win, invited the supporters to Baba Yara Sports Stadium and assured them that the game would be entertaining at the end of the day.
Barnieh passionately invited the fans, “They (supporters) should come in their numbers to the stadium. This is where we need them. Come and support us and enjoy the good football of the Black Meteors. “
