| Ghana's Sulley Ali Muntari relishes World Cup glory, hints on Black Stars' extra motivation and his passion for cars |
Some football pundits including African legend Roger Milla have predicted an African glory in the World Cup sooner than later, and this, Sulley has concurred in an interview with the BBC.
"I have the belief that one day an African country will win the World Cup but I don't know when. But, Ghana, we want to do well in Brazil so let's keep our fingers crossed", such were the words of Muntari.
Even before Ghana officially books a ticket to the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil, Sulley has predicted a wonderful showing by the Black Stars at the Mundial.
The AC Milan striker believes Ghana will surpass their quarter final achievement in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa when they answer the call in Brazil.
The Ghanaian star believes Ghana has come of age after two consecutive World Cup appearances and are more than ready to mount up a challenge for the ultimate.
"We are much experienced now; In 2006 World Cup , we did very well and in 2010 in South Africa, we were amazing so definitely we want to do well in Brazil and hopefully we want to go far in order to make our people and even ourselves happy" Sulley told Dan Walker of Football Focus for BBC World News.
He was, however, quick to note that the second leg in Egypt comes first before any other target.
"It is a big task for us because, now, all eyes will be on Ghana so we want to do well but we have to beat Egypt first.
He admitted that everybody was on cloud nine when the Black Stars annihilated the Pharaohs of Egypt by 6-1 in the first leg of the final qualifier played in Kumasi.
"We all know how good Egypt are; they are a very strong side, they play very good football and they've been dominating for a very long time now; We beating them 6-1 was amazing and fantastic!
"The dressing room was full of excitement, everyone was happy but we know exactly it is going to be difficult over there but we will try our best not to even go there for a draw; we will try and go there for a win because now we are full of motivation and we just want to do well.
"We know how important it is to play in the World Cup and how lovely it is to play in that competition", Muntari intimated.
And please don't be surprised to see Sulley Muntari investing in cars after his career because the AC Milan star says dealing in cars will be his life after football and that he is looking forward to establishing companies around the globe after football.
"I grew up loving cars and it is my passion", Muntari concluded.
