Ghana’s draw against DR Congo (2-2) in their first match of CAN 2013 has left some disappointed, and Asamoah Gyan acknowledges that the result should serve as a reminder of the competition’s challenges. Despite taking a 2-0 lead, Ghana allowed DR Congo to come back and level the score.
Gyan stated, “We had a good match today, but so did the Congolese. We led 2-0 but they equalized at 2-2. We must now do everything to win the second match (against Mali, editor’s note). Everyone thinks Ghana will win easily, but everyone saw what happened today.” The draw emphasizes the competitiveness of the tournament, and Gyan emphasizes the need for focus and determination in upcoming matches.
