Ghana coach Akonnor sets sight on changing Afcon history
Ghana coach CK Akonnor has targeted winning the Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) to leave a legacy at the West African nation.
The Black Stars have endured a series of near misses since winning the last of their four titles in 1982. The first three trophies came in 1963,1965 and 1978.
Akonnor took over the reins in January, replacing James Kwasi Appiah.

"I want us to work and make an impact, be relevant.”
