He did not have much to do in this match. The team were dominant from start to finish. He, however, gifted Sao Tome a goal late in the game.

Benson Anang-4.5

He bombed forward on a few occasions but was barely involved in the attacking phase of the Black Stars. It was no surprise as Ghana favored the left side most of the time.

Ismail Ganiyu-4

The Asante Kotoko man held his own at the back albeit Sao Tome and Principe did not trouble him as much as his previous opponents. He did however, give the ball away in a dangerous position on one occasion.

Nicholas Opoku-6

Abdul Baba Rahman-6

The PAOK man showed willingness to attack from the start of the game. His adventurous plan resulted in a goal. An improved performance as compared to the previous outing.

The Arsenal man uncharacteristically lost a number of balls to the opposition. He was however, involved in the side's attacking play on a few occasions.

Osman Bukari-4

The KAA Gent man was really lively in this match. He constantly asked questions of the Sao Tome and Principe defense with his direct running and dribbling. However, his decision making was poor.

Andre Ayew-5.5

The Swansea City star was also quite involved in this game. He was constantly moving around, finding pockets of space for his teammates to exploit.

Apart from the two assists to, Mohammed Kudus was excellent. The Ajax midfielder put his creative and dribbling skills on display. He was truly a meance for Sao Tome and Principe.

Jordan Ayew-6.5

The Crystal Palace man has struggled with his club this season. But, he showed his quality in this match. The 29-year-old constantly moved around the defenders. He eventually earned a penalty and scored as well.
