00:00the stadium was only deemed fit not so long ago by the confederation of african football

00:15baba iara stadium in kumasi was

00:21and we are indeed underway in this group f clash match day three

00:28Ghana looking for their first win of the campaign

00:39and an early foray down the right hand side by Alidu Seydou trying to latch on to that

00:47he takes his short gets it back now what sort of delivery he's got that's better and into the

00:51oh against the crossbar glorious opportunity after just five minutes

00:56for Ghana to open the scoring as Kudas finally got the delivery right

01:04and the header cannoned off the crossbar

01:06Semenya in the dying embers and moments of the first half

01:23striving forward forced that good save from the goalkeeper earlier that's an outstanding tackle

01:30the fans unhappy the referee does blow his whistle but not for what the Ghanaian fans

01:34want which would of course be a penalty to the home side but that was a brilliant tackle to

01:40stop Semenya in full flight and by doing so it means that at halftime of this group f clash in

01:49nation's cup qualifying for 2025 it is currently Ghana nil sudan nil

02:10and the Ghanaian players just gathering their thoughts

02:13as they go into a little huddle

02:23and that's abu east 1963 1978 and 2008

02:33finals aren't always the greatest spectacle of course

02:37neither in truth has this game been so far needs a little bit of a lift

02:43Ghana need a bit of a boost

02:50Semenya on the charge at the

02:53other end of the pitch and Saeed Ahmed playing it in field

03:03Angola play Niger on friday night in the games of that match day three in the group it comes

03:10chance for Semenya he couldn't read the bounce and he doesn't compare terribly well with his two

03:18from 23 appearances for Ghana strike in spilled a double save from Mohamed Mustafa earlier in the

03:26year Semenya boiling up are the black stars one two with are you just for Semenya into the side

03:33netting it goes another chance goes by in the top flight in Sweden does Baidu 25 years of age

03:46lovely control from Semenya just couldn't get the pass right in the end

03:50but the first touch was it lovely took him exactly where

03:57on for his fourth cap today won two back in 2022 and then didn't win another until

04:03he took to the field against Niger last month looking for his first goal at international level

04:10Kudus into Iñaki Williams no offside flag for now strike across the face of goal and just just

04:21ahead of was it Michael Baidu

04:25Mensa men still in the middle Mensa still trying to

04:33create an opening it's Kuku who will clear it away for the Sudanese nice control

04:41driving run from Mugadan who came on earlier in the half a little push

04:46asked a lot of Seidou and Seidou has covered the ground very quickly deep cross in from him

04:51Williams trying to be alert to it but not as alert

04:56as Mustafa who's read the threat posed by Ghana very very well today

05:01Williams onto his right foot strike a goal from Williams deflection and over the crossbar

05:09Baidu again

05:15Owusu, Jiku

05:21Kuku again with the header at the back he's been very solid today

05:26essential defender for Sudan

05:30grew up in Australia that's nice a little bit of play down the right hand side

05:33into the middle it goes Williams it must be in oh how have they not scored

05:39Williams didn't get the correct touch and then Kudus couldn't turn it over is that enough time

05:46to find the goal that will change the complexion of this qualifying campaign for Ghana Kudus

05:52driving forward touch oh he saved it again will he can't let this one he won't because

05:58Abdul Fatahu cannot keep his shot down as you might expect the Sudan goalkeeper

06:05his team have lived on the edge of times but they are just seconds away

06:17from moving up to four points in the group

06:22and securing could be a very very important point here in Ghana crucially stopping their

06:29opponents of course from taking all three is there a sting in the tail from Sudan

06:36no is there a sting in the tail from Ghana Fatahu trying to play in Kudus and he was clipped and

06:45went down there's a player down in the Sudan area as well the referee looking at his watch

06:49these are the final moments Kudus into the middle it goes up goes Semenyo couldn't fashion the

06:55effort on target Williams tries his luck and bends it and it goes past the post and as it does so

07:03so do Ghana's hopes of winning this encounter because the final whistle has blown and Ghana

07:10who needed victory against Sudan today have been held by the 1970 African champions to a

07:16goalless draw it definitely suits the Sudanese and their coach Kwesi Appiah of Ghana nationality

07:24of course it does not suit that man in black Otto Addo three games so far in this nation's cup

07:31qualifying group no wins for Ghana and full time in the across sports stadium has ended Ghana nil

07:37Sudan nil well can you be surprised that Mohamed Mustapha is getting the bumps from his players

07:45he played a key role in keeping Ghana out

07:51sometimes he got a little bit of luck sometimes it was expert reading of the game
