The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has announced that the 2021 African Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers will resume on November 9-17.
CAF’s announcement means the Black Stars will engage Sudan in a Group C’s double-header in November months after they were called off due to the coronavirus pandemic.
In a statement issued by Africa’s football governing body, Coach Charles Kwablah Akonnor’s side will play their penultimate and ultimate matches on March 22-30, 2021.
“The qualifiers will resume on November 9-17, 2020 with the Day 3 and 4 matches whilst the penultimate and ultimate matches take place on 22-30 March 2021.
“The Confederation of African Football is monitoring the situation closely and working with the relevant authorities with regards to hosting of the matches and will make pronouncements accordingly in the event of developments that will affect playing a match at the designated venues,” it said.
Ghana won their first two games against South Africa and Sao Tome in November 2019.
The 2021 Africa Cup of Nations which will be hosted by Cameroon has been moved to 2022 due to delays caused by Covid 19.
