2021 AFCON: Ghana will do much better at tournament – Milovan Rajevac

Ghana coach Milovan Rajevac expects his outfit to do better at this year’s 2021 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.

Black Stars were eliminated at Round of 16 stage of 2019 AFCON in Egypt following a 5-4 penalty shootout defeat to Tunisia.

The 2019 event was the first time since 2006 that the Black Stars will not be playing in the quarterfinals at Afcon.

The Black Stars have been crowned champions of Africa four times, with their last success coming in 1982. They were runners-up on five occasions.

“At the Afcon, we will have the ability to play against some of the big teams like Morocco and Gabon,” Rajevac was quoted as saying on CAFOnline.

“We have the opportunity to get to know the teams even better. But time is on our side for more matches, and we will do much better at the Afcon.”

Ghana topped their group in the qualifiers with a record of four victories, one draw, and one defeat.

The West African giants lost 3-0 to Algeria on January 5 in their final warm-up game ahead of 2021 AFCON.
