"To go from Belfast, to Rhode Island, to the Middle East, to Glentoran, to Qatar, to Cobh Ramblers, to Ghana and back to Rhode Island in 30 years is an interesting story and I'm glad to get the chance to share it."
Mick McDermott has seen it all during a long coaching career that has taken him all across the world in various roles.
The Belfast native is speaking to BBC Sport NI from Providence, Rhode Island, Ghana's base for the World Cup.
He is part of Carlos Queiroz's backroom staff once again and is also working as a performance co-ordinator for the Black Stars.
It is the second World Cup McDermott has worked at after also linking up with Queiroz for Iran's campaign in 2018, but this one means a bit more to the former Glens boss.
