For this first leg match, the men of Kwesi Appiah regaled their public by inflicting a slashing 6-1 to Egypt. A nightmare for the Pharaohs who must now wonder how they will ascend this handicap. The hosts took the lead inside five minutes through captain Asamoah Gyan at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi.
Michael Essien fools all the Egyptian defense then forced Wael Gomaa to score against his side. Yet that hope was extinguished almost immediately as Majeed Waris made it 3-1 before the break.
The Black Stars begin the second period with the same energy since Gyan scored his second from a head at the far post after Muintari had delivered a freekick to the back, then followed a Sulley Muntari penalty before Atsu who sealed the day for the Black Stars.
The appointment for the second leg match is in Egypt on November 19.
