Former Ghana U17 captain and bayern munich prodigy Emmanuel Bentil has come to reveal that the famous world Cup under 17 winning team had to consult mermaids before they were able to win the cup.
The team which included the likes of Awudu Issaka, Baba Sule and Stephen Appiah belated Brazil in the finals in Ecuador to clinch the trophy. He disclosed this at an interview with Lifestyle TV.
“We went to certain places for rituals to win games. I remember even when I played monchendi (a highly competitive local football game in the 80s and 90s where teams and individuals stake bets on the outcome of matches) at Chorkor, a suburb of Accra. We used to go to the beach maybe at midnight; at 1 clock in the morning or 2 O clock in the morning," he said.
“The whole team had to go there and pray. They will pray and call the saints and sometimes you can hear things, noise and something will come out from the sea, “like maame water (mermaid)”," he added
He also said the reason why most of his former team mates were not successful in their careers was because they never went back to pay homage to the marine spirits.
