Former Ghana defender Samuel Kuffour insists he does not regret the blunder he committed during the Black Stars 2006 FIFA World Cup clash with Italy.

Kuffour played a key role in Ghana’s first qualification to the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany.

But the ex-Bayern Munich defender had a world cup debut to forget, a famous back pass-gone-wrong, which led to Vincenzo Iaquinta scoring the second in a 2-0 defeat to Italy brought his campaign to the end.

Kuffour lost his position to Shilla Illiasu till Ghana got eliminated in the competition.

Speaking on JoySports on his blunder, the former AS Roma defender insisted he doesn’t regret the mistake he made on the day.

“I don’t regret my mistake. As a footballer why would you regret one bad game,” Kuffour stated on Joy FM.

“I was a professional so I wasn’t bothered because I had done so many mistakes in the past. Why should I still be thinking about it.”

“How many players scored an own goal at the World Cup, six, and one of them went on to win the World Cup. I remember Messi missed a penalty against Chelsea at a crucial stage in the Champions League, did Barca fans kill him?” He asked.
