Ghana and Deportivo Alavés midfielder Mubarak Wakaso is confident the Black Stars will beat Tunisia in the round of 16 of the on-going 2019 Africa Cup of Nations.

Kwasi Appiah’s side will face the Eagles of Carthage at the Ismailia Stadium on Monday at 19:00 GMT in their bid to end the country's 37-years trophy drought.

Wakaso who was the Total Man of the Match in Ghana’s 0-0 draw against defending champions Cameroon is optimistic his side will end the north African side’s campaign at the tournament.

“We’re moving match after match. We’re still looking forward to put people on point that we can make it. Our style of play will not change. We’ll do more than what we’ve done,” Mubarak Wakaso told Oyerepa FM.

“We’re here (in Egypt) to stop every team. We’re determined to stop them (Tunisia) and move forward. Insha Allah, we’ll beat them,” he ended.

Ghana topped Group F that contained Benin, Guinea-Bissau and 2017 champions Cameroun while Tunisia were second in Group E.
