加納哭窮 要預支800萬世界杯獎金
''We are not going to say we are not going to play because of the money,'' Ghana midfielder Christian Atsu said. ''We love our nation and we are going to play for our nation.''
加納中場球員克里斯蒂安?阿特蘇說：“我們可不會說因為錢罷賽。我們愛自己的祖國，我們將為祖國而戰?！?/p>
Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah said he had been having ''sleepless nights'' over the issue which came to a head Tuesday when the players and team management had a meeting instead of conducting a training session. President Mahama ''personally spoke to the players'' to assure them they would receive the money, the Ghana Football Association said in a statement. Ghana's players trained as scheduled Wednesday in Brasilia.
加納主教練科外西?阿皮亞說，自己因為這事兒“睡不著覺”。隊員們和管理人員24日曾就此事取消訓練，而召開會議。加納足協則發表聲明說，足協主席馬哈馬“親自跟球員們說”確保他們能拿到錢。25日，加納隊員按照計劃在巴西利亞訓練備戰。
''The management and the government are trying to sort it out and everything will be sorted out in two or three hours' time,'' Appiah said. ''They should have received it before the start of the competition but it's being solved now and we are really focused on the game now.''
阿皮亞說：“管理層和政府都正在努力解決問題，所有事情都會在2、3個小時之內解決。他們應該能在比賽之前拿到錢，不過問題正在解決過程中，而我們現在真的應該專心備戰。”
