#MAXAFCON2023 UPDATES: Late Cape Verde winner stuns Ghana

Date:

Cape Verde defeated Ghana with a stoppage-time winner to take the lead in Group B at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations. 

In the 92nd minute, a blunder in the Black Stars defense allowed Garry Rodrigues to tap into an empty net.

Right before halftime, Ghana had a goal disallowed for offside when Majeed Ashimeru struck from outside the box after Jamiro Monteiro had put the Blue Sharks ahead.

Though Richard Ofori of Ghana made two outstanding stops before Rodrigues scored the game-winning goal, Alexander Djiku did equalize with a diving header.
The Black Stars will take on the Pharoahs of Egypt next on Thursday night at 8 p.m.
