Muntari, Boateng expelled from Ghana World Cup Team

Sulley muntari and Kevin-Prince Boateng will not be a part of the Ghana squad that will face Portugal in today's last Group G match encounter after the duo were suspended by th Ghanaian FA. Muntari reportedly physically attacked a member of the Black Stars’ management team, while Kevin Prince Boateng received the same punishment for hurling verbal abuse at coach Kwesi Appiah.

“The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has suspended Sulley Ali Muntari indefinitely from the Black Stars with immediate effect,” read a statement on the Ghana FA’s official website.

“The decision was taken in the wake of his unprovoked physical attack on an Executive Committee member of the GFA and a management member of the Black Stars, Mr. Moses Armah on Tuesday 24th June, 2014 during a meeting.

“Muntari’s accreditation for the 2014 World Cup has been withdrawn with immediate effect.”

A separate statement read: “The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has approved coach Kwesi Appiah’s decision to suspend Kevin- Prince Boateng indefinitely from the Black Stars.

“The decision takes immediate effect.

“The decision was taken following Boateng’s vulgar verbal insults
targeted at coach Kwesi Appiah during the team's training session
in Maceio this week.

“Boateng has since showed no remorse for his actions which has
resulted in the decision.

“Boateng’s accreditation for the 2014 World Cup has been withdrawn with immediate effect.”
