Afcon 2019: Ghana not repeating Benin mistakes against Cameroon - Kwadwo Asamoah

Ghana deputy skipper Kwadwo Asamoah says the Black Stars are poised to beat Cameroon at the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt to bring their campaign back on track.

James Kwesi Appiah's outfit are eyeing their first win at the continental fiesta following a disappointing 2-2 draw with Benin in their opening Group F fixture.

Saturday's tie at the Ismailia Stadium will be the second clash between the two teams, at successive Afcons, following their meeting in 2017. Cameroon won a keenly-contested semifinal encounter 2-0 in Gabon.

"We didn't get a good result in the first game but I know Ghanaians are still supporting us," Inter Milan ace Asamoah, who is back at Afcon after excusing himself from the last two editions due to fitness issues, said at the pre-match press conference on Friday.
