Next and end of the 8th finals of the African Cup of Nations this Monday. Ghana faces Tunisia. Both teams want to advance to the quarter-finals.
Ghana finished first in their group F with a poor record of 5 points out of 9 possible, tied with Cameroon but with a better goal difference. However, it was not very good for the Blacks Stars who started their competition by conceding a draw against Benin (2-2) and against Cameroon (0-0). But for their last match, the Ayew brothers’ partners dominated a weak Guinea-Bissau team thanks to goals from Jordan Ayew and Thomas Partey to pull the lead out of their group.
Side Tunisian, the first round has clearly left the fans on their hunger. Indeed, if they are unbeaten, the Carthage Eagles have not won any game in this tournament and have settled for 3 draws against all their opponents that are Angola (1-1), Mali ( 1-1) and Mauritania (0-0). With just 3 points, Naïm Sliti’s partners managed to clinch second place in the group and qualified for the round of 16 where they will have to be more enterprising and realistic.
Ghana still has its anthology of stars starting with the former player of Juve, Asamoah Gyan who now bears the colors of the Turkish club Kayserispor. In the midfield, Thomas Partey (Atletico) and Kwadwo Asamoah (Inter) are the tailors. Jordan Ayew (Crystal Palace) and his brother André (Fenerbahçe) are the main offensive weapons. Kasim Nuhu will return his suspension. In contrast, right wing Atsu is on the flank.
On the side of Tunisia, Wahbi Kahzri is the main star of this team and certainly the player best known by the French public as the Dijon Naïm Sliti. We also find the Niçois Hassen and Srarfi Skhiri and Montpellier. Injured, midfielder Ben Mohamed is uncertain for this game.

Ofori – Yiadom, Mensah, Boye, Baba – Mubarak, Partey – Owusu, A. Ayew, Asamoah – J. Ayew
