It’s 87 days to the start of next year’s Total Energies African Cup of Nations tournament in Cote d’Ivoire. The Black Stars have been paired with Egypt, Cape Verde, and Mozambique in Group B. However most Ghanaians are worried about the recent performance of the team, former Black Stars player Tony Baffour believes the Stars will have an improved tournament in Cote D’Ivoire.
It’s a very tricky group with Egyptwhicho is a strong team with a leader Mohammed Salah. We have Cape Verde who have been uncomfortable for us to play. We have Mozambique making it two Portuguese-speaking countries.”
“I’m confident that we will emerge first or second in the group. In our last tournament in Cameroon, we didn’t perform well but generally, we are a tournament team. We still have experienced players like Thomas Partey, Jordan Ayew, and Mohammed Kudus who is the superstar in the team. We are stabilized with our goalkeeper Lawrence Ati-Zigi. I have confidence in the team, it’s not going to be easy but I know Ghana will come out of this group. The gap between the teams is becoming closer but we have to be on our toes to do well.”
