Having endured a tough debut Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast, Salisu believes the Black Stars have what it takes to get a positive result against the Eagles of Mali.

“I think this game is very important for every Ghanaian. It is a World Cup qualifier and we know how important it is for Ghanaians. We have good young players and Ghanaians need to believe the young players and we can do it better,” he told reporters at the Black Stars training in Legon.

“We know it’s not going to be easy. Mali has a strong team, we have to train day by day and hopefully, we will win this game,” he added.
