The Black Stars have officially been knocked out of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) following Cameroon’s win over Gambia.
Despite having only two points, Ghana had a slim chance of advancing to the next stage of the competition.
However, with the Indomitable Lions’ dramatic win over Gambia, Ghana’s participation in the tournament officially comes to an end.
Rigobert Song’s men claimed a 3-2 win over Gambia on Tuesday evening, propelling them into third place in Group C and surpassing Ghana in the race to qualify as one of the best third-placed teams.
Chris Hughton's conceded two late goals in their final Group B game against Mozambique on Monday, January 23, 2024, implying that they failed to win a game at this year’s edition of the AFCON.
The Black Stars have now suffered back-to-back group-stage exit from the continent’s flagship tournament after the same fate in 2022 in Cameroon.
