The Black Meteors played their third group match at the 9th All Africa Games on Monday and gained their first point in the competition
with a 1-1 draw against leaders, Tunisia.
The result however was of no relevance to Ghana's
continued participation in the competition as they
remained glued to the bottom of the table and eliminated
automatically.
With nothing to gain, win or lose, the Ghanaians
went behind after 20 minutes when Ben Amar Karim beat
goalkeeper Eric Ni Baah from the box.
Ghana reacted swiftly and levelled up three
minutes later through Emmanuel Allan.
In the second half, the Tunisians had the game
under control but over elaboration robbed them
of any real chance to increase the tally.
Coach Jones Cecil Attuquayefio said he came into
the competition with a depleted team as most of his
players had deserted the team to respond to foreign
duties.
He said in the absence of the foreign segment, he
invited many home-based players who also failed to
make the trip, while there was not enough time to
rebuild before the Games.
