2022 WCQ: Ghana’s qualification expectations slim after Ethiopia pull

Ethiopia denied Ghana an advantage within Group G of the Africa qualifiers to the 2022 Fifa World Cup after originating from behind to draw on Orlando Stadium in S. africa Thursday afternoon. A Getaneh Kebede second-half strike terminated out Andre Ayew’s outstanding free-kick to end the circular five group game 1-1. The draw takes Ghana level on 10 factors with South Africa, who will enjoy later against Zimbabwe in the FNB Stadium. The Dark Stars will now have to defeat South Africa with a better objective margin in the final team game should the Bafana Bafana win against the Warriors. Ghana started the game on the foot, with Andre Ayew plus Mohammed Kudus being refused by goalkeeper Teklemarian Shanko’s double reflex saves within the 5th minute. Captain Andre’s moment of inspiration after that came in the 22nd moment when he brilliantly curled into the right corner for your opener of the game. Ghana’s defense then kept doing petty mistakes that were still left unpunished only by Ethiopia’s lack of potency in front of objective at the end of the first half. Getaneh Kebede eventually levelled for that Walias in the 72nd moment after firing home through close-range after being remaining unmarked. Ghana’s poor protective organization was punished deservingly. Ethiopia then held upon for a draw that will influence what happens in the group following the full six games. Ghana will host South Africa in the Cape Coast Stadium within the final group game upon Sunday, November 12, whilst Ethiopia plays away towards Zimbabwe the same day.
