The clash took place at the Felix Houphouet Boigny Stadium, where Ghana faced off against the formidable record champions of the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).
Mohammed Kudus, who made a comeback to the starting lineup after missing the opening match against Cape Verde, showcased an impressive AFCON debut by scoring a brace.
