Black Starlets skipper Benjamin Tsivanyo says the resignation of coach Laryea Kingston did not have any bad effect on the team during the WAFU Zone B Championship in Accra.
The former Black Stars winger shockingly relinquished his role following the Black Starlets defeat to Burkina Faso in the semifinals of the tournament.
Speaking to Kessben FM monitored by Footballghana.com, Tsivanyo, who plies his trade for Great Olympics asserted Kingston’s resignation did not affect the team.
“His resignation did not affect us. We’ve learnt a lot from him so in his absence we can execute what he thought us. We are not all that worried because certain things happens. In football, you can’t work with only one coach so we will move on with what he thought us” he said.
