Ghana legend Asamoah Gyan has reacted to Black Stars shocking 2021 Africa Cup of nations (AFCON) elimination from the group stages on Tuesday night following their 2-3 loss to debutants Comoros.
The Black were expected to bounce back from their frustrating 1-1 draw against Gabon on matchday 2 with Jim Allevinah’s late equalizer.

“Well I am devastated and shocked. You cannot win a game with this attitude,” Gyan said on SuperSport, as per Sportsbrief.
“I saw the real Ghana when we were one man down. They try to give everything which was good but it was enough. We didn’t have a sense of urgency throughout the tournament.
“I am a bit upset because why do you have to push when you have ten men on the pitch.”
