Some Ghanaians in the Ivory Coast came out in their numbers to offer prayers for the Black Stars ahead of their crucial 2023 AFCON game against Egypt.
Ghana will face the Pharaohs in their second Group B game of the ongoing tournament, having lost to Cape Verde in their opening game.
The Black Stars need a response, and fast, to revive their chances of qualifying for the knockout stages and another defeat will be striking blow.
Ahead of the all-important game against Egypt, some Ghanaian fans in the Ivory Coast stepped out to pray for the Black Stars.
A video captured by Pulse Ghana’s fan reporter Pellasco showed a number of Ghanaians praying in the open for the national team to succeed.
Meanwhile, some Ghanaian supporters who were transported by the government to the Ivory Coast for the AFCON have reportedly been compensated with $400 after threatening to return home.
According to a report by Citi Sports, the payment was made after the supporters threatened to return home due to the lack of coordination and support from the organising bodies.
The report said the fans, numbering over 300, had felt neglected after touching down in the Ivory Coast to support the Black Stars.
A journalist who spoke on condition of anonymity is quoted as saying officials met the aggrieved supporters and compensated them to stay and continue supporting the national team in Ivory Coast.
