Korsah acknowledged the result was not ideal but expressed optimism about making amends in Ghana. He said, \"It’s a good [feeling], it’s an opportunity for some of the new guys, and coming from Ghana all the way here. We are standing in for the nation as well.\" Korsah expressed gratitude to the Ghanaian community in Mali, officials from the Ghanaian embassy, and their support during the match. Despite the loss, he pledged to correct mistakes and perform better back home for a possible qualification to the next round.
