A section of Ghanaians have expressed disappointment in the Senior National Team, Black Stars of Ghana over their performance at the ongoing African Cup of Nations.
The Black Stars lost 1-0 to Morocco when they played their first match in the ongoing African Cup of Nations.
Although the team needed an outright win to stand firm in the competition, it had a 1-1 drawn game with Gabon.
Despite these, many Ghanaians were hopeful that Ghana could win its game against Comoros but unfortunately, the match ended 3-2 against Ghana.
In the end, Ghana secured only one point, while Comoros also had 3 points and therefore both teams could not qualify for the next stage in the ongoing tournament.
Meanwhile, Morocco and Gabon have made it through the nest stage of the competition.
Below are some reactions of Ghanaians on social media:
