Former Ghana international Dan Quaye has revealed was not surprised by the Black Stars defeat to Sudan in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
Ghana, who are four-time champions of the AFCON succumbed to a 2-0 defeat to the Falcon Jediane at the Benina Martyrs Stadium in Libya on Tuesday afternoon.
The result leave the Black Stars on the verge of failing to qualify for the CAF’s biggest tournament to be held in Morocco next year. The four-time African champions last failed to qualify for the AFCON tournament in 2004.
Ghana are remains winless in the qualifying series after four matches and will need a miracle to secure AFCON spot next year.
Speaking on Bryt FM’s Adekyee Mu Nsem, the former Hearts of Oak defender expressed he was not surprised by the defeat, questioning the players commitment and mentality in the game.
“I’m not surprised with the defeat. The performance they exhibited at the Accra Sports Stadium isn’t the same performance they showed at Libya. I realized things was going to be tough for Ghana from the blast of the whistle. The players didn’t show any sign of commitment and winning mentality on the field of play” he said.
Ghana now needs to secure wins against already-qualified Angola and Niger, while hoping that Sudan falters against these same opponents, to keep their chances alive for next year’s tournament in Morocco.
