Ghana coach Goran Stevanovic says he will give the chance to other players on the fringes of his first team to impress when they take on South Korea in a friendly today.

Qatar-based Opoku Agyemang, AC Milan ace Dominic Adiyiah, Derek Boateng of Getafe, Red Star's Lee Addy and Jonathan Mensah are some players with the chance to impress.

The Serbian has maintained a group players in the starting team since taking over the side in February.

The former Partizan Belgrade boss has not lost a game since taking over the Black Stars.

Even though he is keen on winning the match scheduled to maintain his record, Stevanovic insists he will use the game to test other players in the squad.

'There are some players in the team who have not had the chance to impress and this is the chance for them,' Stevanovic told Ghanasoccernet.com

'I will use this game to see them in a full match situation to keep our team competitive in all areas.

'This doesn't mean we want to water the team down and put our record at risk.

'I am confident these players will come out and fight like the others have done and it is the only way we keep improving day by day.'

Stevanovic has left out seven key players for Tuesday's friendly in Seoul.

Captain John Mensah, Michael Essien, Kevin Prince Boateng, Andre Ayew, striker Prince Tagoe and goalkeeper Sammy Adjei are among the players left out of the team.
