Looking visibly upset, the young man, who was wearing a Ghana Black Stars jersey, could be loudly heard complaining about the bad performance of a player, accusing him of being responsible for Wales' equaliser.
Disclosing that he drove five hours just to watch the match, the man was seen standing beside the Sports Minister, shouting and complaining about the Ghana Football Association (GFA).
"The GFA is worrying us. I drove five hours just to be here. Honourable, you people are playing with the hearts of Ghanaians," he said angrily.
Kofi Adams, on his part, however, kept his cool, ignored the aggrieved fan, and continued granting interviews to media personnel who were around on the performance of the team and Ghana's preparations for the World Cup.

Xpeerience opined:
"Baba cannot be dropped because they have spent the money he paid to join the team. Kurt must go."
User1 indicated:
"Sports Minister dier... hmmm. Baba has no desire to play for the Black Stars. Nii Lantey wouldn't have supported Baba's return. Now all Ghanaians have seen him."
The General added:
"The minister should hear the voice of the fans and stop making excuses."
@Opidarling added:
"Gideon was also not at his best, but he was able to recover and, moreover, his error never led to a goal."
