Ghana will lock horns with Egypt in the second round of matches at the Félix Houphouët-Boigny Stadium on Thursday, January 18, 2024.
Ghana after losing their opening game, will have to avoid a defeat to avoid another early eviction from the competition, whereas Egypt will also seek their first win of the tourney to enhance their qualification chances.
The Black Stars had a jittery start to the competition after succumbing to a surprising 2-1 defeat to Cape Verde in their first game last Sunday, after conceding painfully at the death of the game.
The Pharaohs also, were nearly handed a big upset but nipped on Mohammed's Salah's late penalty to earn a vital 2-2 draw against Mozambique in a pulsating fixture.
