The Black Stars of Ghana have been drawn in Group B, a group of death, comprising Ivory Coast, Burkina Faso, and Togo in the Nations cup draw held in Angola on Friday. Host nation Angola have been paired in Group A with Mali, Algeria and Malawi. Group C has Egypt, Nigeria, Mozampique and Benin Group D has Cameroon, Gabon, Tunisia and Zambia. Immediately after the draw, The Chairman of Ghana's Football Association told BBC "there is no better description of this group". "Ivory Coast and Ghana are two of the best teams in Africa". "The group is interesting because Ivory Coast, Burkina Faso and Togo are all our neighbours". "Togo has Adebayor, one of the best players in the world, and Burkina Faso's Moumouni Dagano is the top scorer of the World Cup qualifying campaign," he said. However history favours Ghana as they've met seven times and the Ivorians have won just one of those encounters. Former Cameroon striker Patrick Mboma said that Group D will be no pushover either. "We've only recently seen what Gabon can do" he said. However he predicted that the Indomitable Lions would reach the semi-finals, after which anything can happen. "We have a new Indomitable Lions, a new captain, a new coach and hopefully a new reality, and I hope we can start the new year in the best way," he said. The Nations Cup begins on 10th January and ends on 31st January, 2010. Credit: Myjoyonline.com with additional files from BBC
