Central African Republic vs Ghana to be played behind closed doors

Central African Republic(CAR) will host Ghana without supporters in Angola in the second game of the 2023 African Cup of Nations qualifier.

The African minnows will on Sunday 5th June, 2022 host the Black Stars at the 11th November Stadium in Angola after CAF rejected the 50,000 capacity  Barthélemy Boganda Stadium in Bangui.

CAR let slip of a lead in their opening match against Angola on Wednesday  after Samuel Nlend  opened the scores for the visitors.

Two goals from the host Angola overturned the scores as CAR lost their opening game 2-1 and will need to upset Ghana to stand a chance of progressing to the 2023 AFCON in Ivory Coast.

“We don’t have supporters here and tomorrow the stadium will be closed to the public. No supporters will be in so we will play behind closed doors.” Central African Republic team manager Willy Kongo told Ghanasportspage.com
