Ghana coach Appiah reveals approach to Afcon after tricky draw

Ghana coach James Kwesi Appiah says he is looking forward to giving his opponents “a good game” after being drawn against defending champions Cameroon, Benin and Guinea-Bissau in the group stage of the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations tournament in Egypt.

The Black Stars – four-time champions – were placed in Group F in the draw conducted at the Sphinx and the Pyramids in Giza, Egypt, on Friday.

The 2015 finalists will open their campaign at the June 21-July 19 event against Benin on June 25, four days before squaring off against Cameroon, who eliminated the Stars in the semi-final of the last championship at Gabon 2017.
