The senior national soccer team the Black Stars of Ghana have humbled their Congolese opponents in a crucial group I clash with a comprehensive 3:0 drubbing.
The match came alive when red-hot Prince Tagoe who is on loan with Serbian side Partizan Belgrade continued his fine form with a cool finish in the 20th minute of the first half.
His teammate at Partizan, Dominic Adiyiah, scored the second goal in the 44th minute when he headed home a well placed cross from John Paintsil.
After the break, the coach made a few changes, pulling out Prince Tagoe and bringing on Dnipro star Samuel Inkoom. David Addy was also withdrawn from the left of defence for Red Star Belgrade defender, Lee Addy.
As the game wore on, the coach brought on Sulley Muntari to replace the tiring Dede Ayew, and Sulley made an instant impact scoring the Black Stars' third goal.
Speaking to Joy FM after the game, the Ghana Football Association president Kwesi Nyantakyi said the resounding win proves that the team took the game seriously contrary to views that the team had made the England friendly on Tuesday a much higher priority.
Ghana now have seven points and still remain top of the group.
The team will head to Wembley in England to play the Three Lions Tuesday in a game that promises a lot of excitement.
