2021 AFCON Match Report: Ghana 2-3 Comoros – Black Stars finish bottom of Group C

Ghana has finished bottom of Group C at the 2021 TotalEnergies Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) tournament after failing to win a single match .

Nicknamed the Black Stars, the national team of the West African country started the campaign ongoing in Cameroon with a 1-0 defeat to Morocco.

Subsequently, on matchday 2, Ghana faced off with Gabon and only recorded a 1-1 draw after 90 minutes.

Today the Black Stars locked horns with Comoros in a decisive game to decide the fate of the team.

Following a very bad start to today’s contest, Ghana conceded in as early as the fourth minute when El Fardou Ben scored with a fine effort to give Comoros the lead.

In the quest to push for a way back, Ghana’s situation went from bad to worse as captain Andre Ayew was giving the marching orders for a challenge on the Comoros goalkeeper.

Forced to play with 10 men, Ghana conceded another goal in the 61^st minute of the second half.

Although Richmond Boakye Yiadom and Alexander Djiku would both score to draw parity for the Black Stars, a late goal from Ahmed Mogni to complete his brace powered Comoros to a historic 3-2 win at the end of the 90 minutes.

Courtesy of the result, Ghana finishes bottom of Group C with just a single point. It is a performance not enough to see the side progress to the knockout stage of the 2021 AFCON.
