Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah has said goalkeeper Fatawu Dauda has to do more to remain the country's top choice.
.
'' He has been doing well, but he still needs to do a lot more to remain as Ghana's No 1. He must keep fighting ''.
.
The 27-year-old AshantiGold shot-stopper was man of the match as the Black Stars moved past Cape Verde 2-0 on Saturday to book their place in the semifinals of the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations.
.
He pulled off several top-class saves, with a spectacular effort on the 82nd minute to deny Cape Verde substitute Djaniny the pick as he flung himself to tip a powerful, goal-bound shot to safety.
.
For the past four seasons, Dauda has been one of the most consistent goalkeepers in the Ghana Premier League as he ensured his club finished runners-up in the last two campaigns.
.
'' Ghana have so many great goalkeepers, both in the domestic league and overseas, and I have to continue to justify the confidence the coach has in me '', vowed Dauda.
