Captain of the Stars – André Ayew gave them the lead in the 18th minute and after a hard battle, the Panthers console the heart of the Panthers in the 88th minute which the Black Stars find to be unfair as per André Ayew’s post-match review. He said, ‘they had the ball and their player was down so they were waiting for the Algerian Referee to bounce the ball but to their surprise, the Panthers had the advantage to score’.
The Black Stars of Ghana are now in the third spot hoping to qualify for the next round of the competition. Despite a draw and a loss – Ghana still has a chance to progress to the playoffs by automatic promotion or among the 3rd highest-ranking team – so even in a third position, they might qualify.

However, with all said, Ghana Captain – André Ayew won the man of the match but one player who equally deserve was Gabon’s midfielder – Guélor Kanga. The FK Crvena zvezda star troubled the Black Stars of Ghana with an assist, a shot on target, three shots off-target, four key passes, eight successful long balls, 84.3% accurate passes, four dribbles, won five fouls, and had the highest ratings of 8.0 according to sofa score statistics.
