Ghana has won their first match under then new coach, Charles Akonnor as they thrashed Qatar in a friendly match played at the Mardan Sports Complex in Antalya, Turkey.
Captain Andre Ayew scored a brace, with English-born attacker Tariqe Fosu and Samuel Owusu scoring their debut goals. Striker Caleb Ekuban also found the back of the net in the convincing win.
Akonnor’s side will now turn their attention to Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Sudan next month.
Congrats to our boys for doing well today. Last time they were beaten by Mali by 3 goals to nil much to the chagrin of Ghanaians. At least they have made us happy today with their massive victory.
