Afcon 2023: Ghana 1-2 Cape Verde – Black Stars fall to late defeat

January 15, 2024

[ad_1]

Jamiro Monteiro puts Cape Verde 1-0 up against Ghana at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations — Jamiro Monteiro put Cape Verde ahead in the 17th minute at the Felix Houphouet-Boigny Stadium

Cape Verde upset Ghana with a stoppage-time winner to go top of Group B at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

Garry Rodrigues tapped into an empty net in the 92nd minute after a mix-up in the Black Stars defence.

Jamiro Monteiro had put the islanders ahead and Ghana then had a goal ruled out for offside before half-time.

Alexander Djiku did equalise with a stooping header, but Ghana keeper Richard Ofori made two big saves before Rodrigues pounced to net and win it.

More to follow.
