Ghana suffered a disappointing draw against Mozambique in the Africa Cup of Nations, despite initially taking a 2-0 lead. The match was played at Stade Alassane Ouattara, and Jordan Ayew of Crystal Palace proved why he plays in the English topflight, scoring both goals from the penalty spot. Many Ghanaians were already celebrating the apparent victory, but Mozambique managed to score twice within four minutes during stoppage time, causing a major upset for the West African nation. As a result, Ghana has been eliminated from the 2023 AFCON, while Pharo’s Egypt has qualified in Group B, after leapfrogging Ghana by just one point. Egypt also had a tough night, giving up their lead against group leaders Cape Verde, but managed to secure a last-minute equalizer through Bryan Teixeira, extending their unbeaten run in the group stage of the tournament.
