It was history for the Black Satellites on Friday night as their 1-0 win over Uganda saw them clinch a gold medal at the 2023 African Games.
A keenly-contested game at the Accra Sports Stadium in the final only had one winner - Ghana - Jerry Afriyie being the difference maker in the fixture.
The forward fired a low shot just outside the box to beat the Uganda goalkeeper to break the deadlock and hand victory to Ghana.
This is how Desmond Ofei's side celebrated their gold medal win as captured by Myjoyonline photojournalist David Andoh:
