Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>Ghana secured qualification to the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations after coming from behind to beat the Central African Republic 2-1 at the Baba Yara Stadium on Thursday.<\/b><\/p>\n

Despite a poor start which led to Ghana conceding first in the 25th minute, Ghana restored their fortunes as Mohammed Kudus curled in a brilliant free-kick to equalise while substitute Ernest Nuamah scored late to hand Ghana qualification.<\/p>\n

A lot of positives were recorded from this victory despite conceding yet again in a disappointing manner.<\/p>\n

Lawrence Ati Zigi \u2013 6: Dealt well with the few shots he faced but couldn\u2019t do much to prevent his opponent from scoring from a defensive blunder<\/p>\n

Alidu Seidu \u2013 6.5: Proved why the team is blessed with quality in the right-back position as he managed to keep his opponents in check while combining well with Osman Bukari as well as Ernest Nuamah on the right flank.<\/p>\n

Joseph Aidoo \u2013 6.5: Was a key reason Ghana didn\u2019t face much danger at the back but for the goal conceded in the first half.<\/p>\n

Alexander Djiku \u2013 6: He paired with Aidoo so well filling in nicely for the injured Daniel Amartey<\/p>\n

Abdul Baba Rahman \u2013 6: Was okay in the first half with cautious passes and impressive runs on the left flank but received a knock in the second half.<\/p>\n

Abdul Salis Samed- 6.5: Showed his consistency in the heart of midfield by shielding the back four as well as initiating attacks with distribution to the wings.<\/p>\n

Elisha Owusu \u2013 6: Partey\u2019s replacement for the match and he took the opportunity well. However, lacked accuracy in his initial long passes. Would probably need more opportunities to fit in seamlessly.<\/p>\n

Mohammed Kudus \u2013 8: Once again delivered in a crucial moment by scoring a stunning free-kick on the cusp of half-time to turn the game around.<\/p>\n

Osman Bukari \u2013 6: Was a threat for the Wild Beasts on the right flank with daring runs and beautiful footwork but only lacked the finishing touch which he is known for.<\/p>\n

Jordan Ayew \u2013 6: As the skipper, all he needed was to see his team win and he did well to make it happen with his remarkable work in both defense and attack.<\/p>\n

Inaki Williams \u2013 6: Was a team player but lacked supplies from midfield perhaps due to his problematic positioning<\/p>\n

Substitutes<\/p>\n

Ernest Nuamah \u2013 7.5: Ghana\u2019s newfound love, Nuamah climbed from the bench to net the winner. His recent praise and applause from his performances at the club level was justified with his remarkable cameo.<\/p>\n

Antoine Semenyo \u2013 7: Beginning to make the Baba Yara Stadium his favourite venue as he set up Nuamah to justify Hughton\u2019s substitutions.<\/p>\n

Gideon Mensah \u2013 5.5 Didn\u2019t have much to deal with defensively since he entered at a time when Ghana were on the front foot but contributed significantly by joining the attack in their ambitious adventures later in the game<\/p>\n

Baba Iddrisu \u2013 N\/A<\/p>\n
