Local Black Stars coach Maxwell Konadu has confirmed that senior national team boss Kwesi Appiah paid an undisclosed amount to the team for beating Ethiopia in their final Group C match at the CHAN. Konadu also added that Appiah has been providing technical assistance to him at the tournament. Ghana played DR Congo on Sunday night for a place in the last four of the competition. Konadu�s side topped Group C after beating Congo 1-0, drew 1-1 with Libya and a hard fought 1-0 win over dreaded Ethiopia. �(Kwasi) Appiah has given me all the support here. Tactically and technically he�s been supporting me at training and in camp where we share ideas,� Konadu said. �He promised the team a handsome winning bonus and we won. He immediately called me that he had sent for the money to be brought to the players.�
