Black Stars striker Felix Afena-Gyan remains optimistic about Ghana’s chances of qualifying for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), insisting that the team’s campaign is far from over despite suffering defeats in their opening matches.
Ghana endured a difficult start to the qualifying campaign, losing their first two matches and leaving themselves with an uphill task in their quest to secure a place at the continental showpiece.
However, Afena-Gyan believes there is still enough time for the Black Stars to turn their fortunes around, with the upcoming double-header against Somalia presenting an opportunity to revive their qualification hopes.
Speaking ahead of the crucial fixtures, the striker expressed confidence that Ghana can recover from their disappointing start.
“On our chances of qualifying, there is still hope. Despite losing our opening matches, nothing is lost,” Afena-Gyan said.
The Black Stars will be determined to secure maximum points against Somalia to keep their qualification ambitions alive and restore confidence among supporters.
With the pressure mounting, Ghana will need to deliver improved performances and consistency as they seek to get their AFCON qualifying campaign back on track.
