The Ghana Football Association has vowed to restore the Black Stars’ pride and success after a disappointing exit from the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
After the Black Stars squandered a two goal lead in added time to crash out of the competition, the GFA released a statement expressing their commitment to rebuilding and strengthening the national team.
The statement read, “We greatly appreciate the unwavering support of our stakeholders and we are dedicated to working tirelessly with you to ensure a more competitive team. Your loyalty and passion are the driving forces behind our efforts to elevate the standard of Ghanaian football.”
“We thank you for your understanding during this challenging time and remain focused on restoring the pride and success we all desire for the Ghana Black Stars. Together, we will emerge stronger and more resilient.”
Ghana’s failure to advance to the Round of 16 came after finishing third in a group that included Cape Verde, Egypt, and Mozambique.
The team suffered a 2-1 defeat to Cape Verde, followed by back to back 2-2 draws against Egypt and Mozambique, sealing their premature exit from the tournament.
This marks the second consecutive tournament in which the Black Stars failed to progress past the group stage without securing a win, extending the country’s AFCON title drought to 42 years.
