Has Jamie Carragher won Man of the Match in his Career before ?-Ghana Legend Osei Kuffour quizzes as he blasts pundit for disrespecting AFCON

Ghanaian football legend Samuel Osei Kuffour has responded to Liverpool icon Jamie Carragher after Carragher made comments downplaying the importance of the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) tournament.

Carragher has faced criticism from several African football legends for his remarks. A few weeks ago, while discussing Mohamed Salah’s chances of winning the Ballon d’Or, the former Liverpool defender claimed that AFCON is not a major competition. This statement did not sit well with many former African players, who have since called him out for his opinion.

Osei Kuffour, a former AFCON winner, did not hold back in his response. Speaking to SportyTV, he fired back at Carragher, asking, “Has he ever even won a Man of the Match award in his career?” The Ghanaian legend questioned Carragher’s credibility and highlighted his lack of individual accolades.

Other African football greats, such as Jay-Jay Okocha, John Mikel Obi, and Emmanuel Adebayor, have also criticized Carragher for his comments. His dismissal of AFCON as a significant tournament has sparked widespread backlash from African players and fans alike. It remains to be seen whether Carragher will continue to face criticism or if he will address the controversy.
