Partey, Kudus, Abalora and Baba singled out as Ghanaians react to Black Stars win over Sao Tome in Afcon qualifiers

Ghana beat Sudan 3-1 on Sunday to wrap up their 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying campaign but judgements after the game were not all positive.

At the Accra Sports Stadium, Ajax midfielder Mohammed Kudus set up Nicholas Opoku's opener and Abdul Rahman Baba's goal, while Jordan Ayew converted from the spot to ensure a home win for the Black Stars. Iniesta, on the other hand, scored the victors' consolation following a howler from goalkeeper Razak Abalora.

The Black Stars finished the series top of Group C, one point ahead of Sudan who beat South Africa 2-0 in the other group game on Sunday to join CK Akonnor's side for the championship to be hosted by Cameroon next year.
