The Black Galaxies of Ghana suffered a disgraceful defeat to Niger at the ongoing 2022 CAF Africa Nations Championship (CHAN) tournament in Algeria.
The Nigeriens were clearly the better team right from the blast of the referee’s whistle and dominated the game in the opening minutes of the match.
Their pressure finally paid off in the 11th minute when Accra Hearts of Oak SC defender, Konadu Yiadom scored an own goal to give the Niger team the lead.
Soumane Hainikoye scored a World class goal just four minutes after the break to make it 2-0.
Ghana are out of the 2022 CHAN tournament ongoing in Algeria as Niger set up a semi-final clash against the host nation, Algeria on Tuesday.
