Approached by a Ghanaian journalist for a post-match interview, Langabel, who is known for making hilarious comments during such interviews, declined to speak about the match.

Walking at a fast pace, Langabel repeatedly told the journalist he was not going to comment and hurried off until he came across a bus, where he then paused and urged the bus driver, who was apparently conveying Ghanaian fans to their base, to wait for him.

At the time of writing the report, the video had gained over 2000 views.

Watch the moment Langabel refused to speak after the Black Stars game ended.
