2006 World Cup: Black Stars management failed me – Laryea Kingston.
Former Ghana winger Laryea Kingston feels the management team of the Black Stars could have protested against the ban that prevented him from appearing at the 2006 Fifa World Cup in Germany.
The skillful midfielder has described his entire playing career as a success but insists it’s very hard for him to accept that he never played at the World Cup.
An incident in a group game between Ghana and Senegal at the 2006 Africa Cup of Nation’s in Egypt triggered Laryea Kingston’s absence from the tournament after he was shown the red card and banned for four games after an altercation with Habib Beye of Senegal.
The former Hearts of Oak, Terek Grozny, and Lokomotiv Moscow player who played all qualifying games for the 2006 World cup was overlooked due to the ban and he believes the management of the team at the time could have done something to overturn that decision.
He revealed this during an interview with Starr Fm in Accra.
