Supporters of the Cameroonian title stumbled on Ghana in the shock of Group F (0-0). The Ghanaians will not have the right to the error for the last match, against Guinea-Bissau.

Cameroon will be happy. The reigning African champion, with four points, is likely to pass the group stage while Ghana, before facing Guinea-Bissau, is not yet certain of his fate.

The Blacks Stars have hardly shown anything during this CAN. Much more was expected from this meeting between two of the most ambitious teams in Egypt. The match was marked by incredible technical weakness.

How to develop actions if one is unable to line up three passes in a row, if one can never touch his attackers or if not one center does not seem destined to a partner? So it was a desert and the two goalkeepers had almost nothing to do.

Ofori was called on a strike by Toko Ekambi late in the first period (41st). Onana, for a long time, followed the meeting as a spectator before having to stop a shot by Yiadom (89) in a late game to the advantage of Ghana with a huge opportunity just before on a mistake by Kana-Biyik. Kwabena took the ball, forgot Jordan Ayew in the axis and hit the crossbar (87th). This clash ultimately did not deserve a winner.

Still, at the beginning of the tournament, the important thing will be to leave this group F. Then, a new competition will begin ...
