The AFCON 2017 semi-finals will resume on Thursday, February 2, 2017 (11:00 AM Pacific) when Cameroon play Ghana at the Stade de Franceville in Gabon. Both sides are coming from strong victories over Senegal and DR Congo respectively which should make for an enticing duel.
The Cameroon National Team are coming into this game undefeated with two draws and a win in group stage play. Their quarter-final match against Senegal was a hard-fought encounter in which the Central-African nation came out on top in a penalty shoot-out. Hugo Broos’ side has now not scored in two consecutive games which should worry the Belgium manager going into their encounter against Ghana. Players like Benjamin Moukandjo and Karl Toko Ekambi who both reside in the Ligue 1, will need to come up big in this game if they wish to reach the final of the AFCON.
The Ghana National team unlike Cameroon was not undefeated coming into this semi-final game, but they did get two 1-0 wins in group stage play and a 2-1 win over DR Congo to get to this semi-final game. Ghana do arguably have more attacking options than Cameroon, like the Ayew brothers who both scored a goal each in Ghana’s quarter-final match against DR Congo. The West-African side also count with captain, Asamoah Gyan as a key player going forward, as well as the very pacey, Christian Atsu of New Castle United. The game should be a hard-fought encounter which may need extra tie or penalties to ultimately decide who will progress to the final of the competition.
