Following the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier, Central African Republic's Head Coach, Raoul Savoy, expressed his concerns regarding Ghana's performance and offered predictions about potential challenges for the Black Stars in the upcoming tournament.
Ghana secured their place in the competition, set to be hosted in Ivory Coast, by securing a 2-1 victory over CAR at the Baba Yara Stadium on Thursday.
A crucial equalizer by Mohammed Kudus just before halftime laid the groundwork for a closely contested match. However, it was Antoine Semenyo and Ernest Nuamah who ultimately sealed the victory for the Black Stars.
Unfortunately for CAR, this defeat means they will have to wait for another opportunity to compete in the continental showpiece, having finished third in Group E.
Reflecting on the match, Savoy voiced his belief that the Black Stars received favorable treatment from the referee and were granted numerous privileges by the officials.
He cautioned that if Ghana replicates the performance displayed on Thursday in Ivory Coast, they could face another potential setback.
Speaking to reporters in the press room at the Baba Yara Stadium, Savoy issued a warning, stating, "Your next AFCON will be like the last one."
In the previous AFCON held in Cameroon, the Black Stars, under the management of Milovan Rajevac, were eliminated in the group stage.
They secured just one point in their group, suffering a loss to Morocco in their opening match, followed by a draw against Gabon, and ultimately falling to a defeat against Comoros.
