The Black Stars began their AFCON 2021 campaign with a disappointing 1-0 loss to Morocco.
An 83rd-minute Sofiane Boufal goal gave the North African giants a crucial win at the Ahmadou Ahidjo Stadium in Yaounde.
Milovan Rajevac’s side went toe to toe with the Moroccans who came into the game as huge favourites, having lost only one of their last 21 matches in all competitions.
Despite the period of pressure from the Stars, it was Morocco who took the lead.
Sofiane Boufal picked up the ball in the box after some pretty unconvincing attempts by the Stars defence to clear and fired past Jojo Wollacott.
