2021 AFCON: Fegafoot president Alain Mounguengui tips Gabon to advance from Group C ahead of Ghana

The President of the Gabonese Football Federation (Fegafoot), Pierre Alain Mounguengui has tipped the Panthers to advance from Group C of the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) tournament ahead of Ghana.

According to him, the Black Stars are feared because they have history in the competition. For him however, Gabon have a strong team and will change the narrative.

“Some teams, like Ghana and Morocco, are feared simply because of their name. But very frankly, our hen [group] is playable. We have a card to play, like all the other teams,” Pierre Alain Mounguengui said after the 2021 AFCON draw last Tuesday.

The Panthers are set to play their first match of the tournament against Comoros on January 11.
