GHANA WIN WITH TRICKY GOAL

The Black Stars continued grinding out results in the FIFA World Cup qualifiers.

Following a dramatic comeback win over Mali in Bamako last week, the Black Stars continued in their winning ways after emerging 4-3 victors in a tightly contested tie against Central African Republic in Kumasi on Monday, 10 June.

The Stallions on the other hand will be disappointed at dropping points against Sierra Leone who held them to a 2-2 draw in a match played in Bamako, Mali.

There was also drama in Group G, as Mozambique stunned Guinea with a narrow 1-0 win to secure maximum points on the road.

Ghana 4 – 3 Central African Republic

Kumasi bore witness to one of its Black Stars’ most dramatic encounters in the sides’ rich history books.

The former African champions were home to Central African Republic in a Group I match that concluded 4-3 in favour of Ghana.

Following his vital late strike against Mali last week, Jordan Ayew continued where he left off, as his hat-trick contributed to the high scoring and nerve-wracking tie that concluded with Ghana walking away with all three points.

Burkina Faso 2 – 2 Sierra Leone

Burkina Faso lost out on an opportunity to close the gap between themselves and table toppers, Egypt after disappointingly dropping points in a home match played in Bamako.

After taking a two-goal lead ahead of the break, two lapses of concentration cost the Stallions vital points at home as Sierra Leone came from behind to salvage a 2-2 draw.
