Ghana captain John Mensah has dedicated Sunday’s victory to striker Dominic Adiyiah whose father was buried a day before the match.
The Partizan Belgrade’s gave his late father a befitting farewell by scoring the second goal for the Black Stars in the 3-0 win.
His commitment and assertiveness was awesome and won the admiration of John Mensah who dedicated the hard fought victory to the bereaved forward.
“It was a hard game but we thank God for the victory. The most important thing is we stay together and play as a team and at the end we get victory,” Mensah said.
“We thank all Ghanaians for their support but the most important I have to say is our condolences to Dominic Adiyiah for his late father.
“We all pray for him and we are behind him all the time,” Mensah said in a post-match.
Ghana are joint top of Group I with Sudan who defeated Swaziland 3-0 in Sunday night’s game.
