But head coach Sellas Tetteh his preparations will not be jolted by their decision to chicken out.
"I have just been made aware of the cancellation of the match and I am little disappointed but it happens sometimes," Tetteh told Ghanasoccernet.com
"We begin camping soon for the world cup and am sure replacement will be found soon.
"It is a shame but that should be alright for us," he added.

The Black Satellites are aiming to become the first African country to win the trophy in its 32-year history.
