The former President John Dramani Mahama has congratulated the Black Stars for defeating Central African Republic on Thursday, September 7 to seal qualification to the 2024 TotalEnergies AFCON to be staged in Cote d’Ivoire.
Moments after the match ended 2-1 in favour of the Stars at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi, the former President took to Twitter to write: “Congratulations to our Black Stars. Great come back from a goal down and a spectacular victory against CAR to book a well-deserved spot in the 2024 AFCON. You’ve made Ghana proud again! Keep shining! Let’s go for gold in the AFCON.”
Under the guidance of Chris Hughton, youngsters, Mohammed Kudus and Ernest Nuamah, rose to the occasion. Kudus’ precision free-kick in the 43rd minute and Nuamah’s close-range finish in the 88th minute secured their passage to Cote d’Ivoire, emerging as the top contenders from Group E with 12 points.
