Ghana defender Jonas Adjetey is delighted after scoring his first goal for the Black Stars in their 2-0 win over Somalia in Thursday's 2027 AFCON qualifier at the Essipong Sports Stadium.
The Wolfsburg defender opened the scoring just before half-time after Jordan Ayew missed a penalty in the 14th minute.
Felix Afena-Gyan added the second in the 62nd minute from a Mohammed Kudus assist.
Adjetey described the goal as a special moment and thanked his teammates for their support.
"It feels amazing to score my first goal. I have been waiting for this moment for some time now. My teammates have been very supportive, and I am glad that I had such an opportunity," he said.
The victory ended Ghana's five-match winless run and gave interim coach Kim Lars Björkegren a winning start.
The Black Stars will face Somalia again on Monday, November 16, at the same venue.
