Interim Ghana coach Kim Lars Björkegren is pleased with the Black Stars' 2-0 victory over Somalia but admits his team missed several scoring chances.
Ghana secured their first win in the 2027 AFCON qualifiers at the Essipong Sports Stadium on Thursday, despite Jordan Ayew missing a penalty and the team wasting other opportunities.
Björkegren praised his players for their performance and control of the game, although he felt they could have scored more goals.
“I think it was a good football. We were entertaining the fans. We had more chances, and we played pretty well. I think we have totally control in the end, and it was saved three points in the end. Even if we, as I said, maybe missed a couple of chances, especially a penalty. It is what it is. But overall, I'm happy with what the boys did,” the interim Black Stars coach said.
The victory moved Ghana from the bottom to third place in Group C.
The Black Stars will face Somalia again on November 16 in the return fixture as they seek another win.
