Otto Addo knows nothing about tactical changes.

The Black Stars lost by three goals to 2 against Portugal. After Dede Ayew scored to cancel Christiano Ronaldo's penalty, Otto Addo made two substitutions in the 78th minute. Many believe the coach's substitution contributed to Ghana's loss.

Dede Ayew and Kudus, who assisted Ghana's first goal, were both substituted for Bukari and Jordan Ayew. Shortly after the substitutions were made, Portugal scored two goals after Jordan Ayew lost the ball in dangerous areas on both occasions.

Jao Felix put Portugal in front once again, and subsequently, Rafael Leao scored the 3rd for the Navegadores. Ghana, however, got a consolation goal after Osman Bukari scored a header in the 89th minute.

A respected Sports Analyst Steven Osam-Tewiah from Sulia Podcast has highlighted some criticisms of coach Otto Addo and has mentioned that they are warranted. According to Tewiah the coach could have made better decisions with one person saying:

The criticism of the coach is very warranted in the case of the Portugal game. In the first half, we had so many problems we came back, and the game plan was to hit them on the counter, but we did not do enough to allow the team to play in a counter-attacking form.

The Deployment Of Dede Ayew Cost Ghana

Tewiah was not pleased with how Otto Addo used Dede Ayew. According to him, Dede Ayew's lack of pace and turn was a big issue in the system Ghana was attempting to play. Tewiah said:

Deploying Dede Ayew as a forward was a bad decision because Dede Ayew did not have the pace and turn to play in that position. He could not pick up the ball and play incisive passes.
