Behind the Pharaohs who play earlier in the day, Ghana, four times crowned, is the other power of the group based at the Houphouët-Boigny stadium in Abidjan.
His best assets are offensive with the always faithful Ayew brothers, André and Jordan, and Mohamed Kudus, who brings joy to West Ham.
The eldest son of Abedi PelĂ© will equal Rigobert Song’s record with an eighth participation in the CAN, and could well double it in the number of matches played in the competition. The current coach of Cameroon stopped at 34 matches, AndrĂ© Ayew is at 34 at the dawn of the tournament…
Cape Verde, for its part, has largely renewed the team which reached the round of 16 in Cameroon. With the same coach, Pedro Leitao Brito “Bubista”, in office since 2020, the “Tubaroes Azuls” (Blue Sharks) still count on goalkeeper Vozinha and former Ligue 1 Ryan Mendes, now at Fatih KaragĂĽmrĂĽk, in Turkey .
Its hinge is “Franco-Irish”, with Toulouse Logan Costa and Roberto Lopes “Pico”, born in Dublin and pillar of Shamrock Rovers.
