Ghana’s Black Galaxies are set to leave the country on Thursday, July 28, for the second leg of the Championship of African Nations.
The team will go up against Junior Squirrels of Benin on Saturday, July 30, 2022 in Porto-Novo.
Coach Annor Walker’s team head into the return leg with a comfortable 3-0 advantage.
Black Galaxies over the weekend recorded an impressive first-leg triumph over cross-border neighbours Benin in the 2023 CHAN Qualifiers at the Cape Coast Sports Stadium.
Hearts of Oak forward Daniel Afriyie Barnieh opened the scoring for Ghana in the 25th minute before his club teammate Mohammed Alhassan doubled their advantage four minutes.
After the recess, Ghana captain Gladson Awako put the icing on the cake after he curled a lovely ball into the roof of the net for the third goal of the day.
Ghana have failed to qualify for the tournament in the last three editions and will hope to make another appearance this time around.
The Black Galaxies finished 2nd in 2009 and in 2014.
