My style of play is to help the team not individual achievement-Joseph Paintsil

Black Stars forward Joseph Paintsil has stated that he is not under any pressure to score in Ghana’s game against Madagascar.

According to him, his style of play is to always help the team win.

Speaking to the media at a press conference on Tuesday, he said, he helps the team through assist, fighting on the field, defending and taking opposing players on.

He said, by performing these roles, if he scores, it’s an addition, but not his main focus, emphasising that team work is the ultimate goal.

“The most important thing is working together as Ghanaians to produce the needed results for Ghana,” he added.

Paintsil ended the 2022/23 campaign as Ghana’s top scorer in Europe, having scored 18 goals and provided 14 assists.

The Black Stars will take on Madagascar on sunday, with the aim of maintaining the top spot in Group E of the qualifiers to seal a smooth AFCON qualification.
