The Black Stars suffered a 2-1 defeat in their first friendly encounter, with Cyriel Dessers and Ademola Lookman scoring for the Super Eagles and Jordan Ayew netting a consolation goal from the penalty spot for Ghana.

The match was marred by a red card for Jerome Opoku, leaving Ghana a man down. However, there is positive news on the team front as captain Andre Ayew participated in the team's final training session held yesterday, indicating his readiness for the upcoming game.

The friendly match against Uganda, being played in Morocco, is part of Ghana's preparations for future assignments. The team is looking to bounce back from their recent defeat and use this opportunity to fine-tune their strategy and teamwork. The return of Andre Ayew could provide a much-needed boost to the team's morale and performance.

Ghana's head coach, Otto Addo, is likely to make some tactical changes following the team's performance against Nigeria. The focus will be on improving the team's defense and creating more scoring opportunities.
