Black Stars settle for disappointing draw against Niger in 2025 AFCON qualifiers

Accra, Sept. 09, GNA - The Black Stars of Ghana were held to a 1-1 draw by Menas of Niger in the 2025 African Cup of Nations qualifiers (AFCON) played at the Stade Municipal de Barkane in Morocco.

Ghana Coach Otto Addo, after their last loss against Angola, made some changes to the lineup, with Majeed Ashimeru and Inaki Williams giving the starting nod ahead of Jordan Ayew and Elisha Owusu.

The Black Stars started the game on a front foot, putting the opponents under pressure and keeping possession very well on a very silky surface.

However, Ghanaian-born Nigerien striker Daniel Sosa nearly put his side ahead in the 17th minute, but his low shot was gathered by Lawrence Ati-Zigi.
