Essien: Ghana must work hard

Michael Essien has called on his Ghana teammates to work hard as they prepare for their final group game against Morocco in the African Nations tournament next week.

"We have to take the game against Morocco very seriously," he declared.

"The game against Morocco is going to be a tough. We are going to have to keep working hard in training.

"We were a little unlucky in front of goal but we were struggling to get our final pass right," explained Essien. "But in the end we managed to win.

"I know people were expecting more goals from us but in this case I think the three points are more important. Even if you score 10, you still get the same points."
