Black Stars defender Kassim Nuhu will miss Ghana’s final Group F game against Guinea-Bissau through suspension.

The Hoffenheim center-back picked up his second yellow card at the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations in the 0-0 draw with Cameroon on Saturday.

Kassim’s absence is a major blow for coach Kwesi Appiah ahead of the decisive encounter with the Wild Dogs.

Ghana will need to beat Guinea Bissau on Tuesday to progress to the last 16 of the competition.
