Ghana wary of Liverpool starlet Nemeth ahead of U20 semi

Liverpool starlet Krisztian Nemeth has Ghana wary ahead of their U20 World Cup semifinal against Hungary.

The Technical Director of the Ghanaian Football Association, Francis Oti Akenteng, who led Ghana to the semi-finals of the 1997 competition in Malaysia, insists his nation must attempt to find a solution to thwart Nemeth and Hungary.

He said: "Nemeth is a good player, and from what we saw of him against Italy, he is a big threat to Ghana. I hope that Sellas Tetteh [Ghana coach] can find a suitable replacement for Mensah to handle him.

"Whatever the situation is, the Ghana defence have to be very wary of him."

Along with Nemeth, Hungary also boast Liverpool teammates goalkeeper Peter Gulacsi and midfielder Andras Simon.
