Ghana ratings vs Sudan: Alidu Seidu 10/10, Jordan Ayew 4/10, Kudus average score

Alidu Seidu played his heart out for Ghana, earning the highest rating between Ghana and Sudan, while Jordan Ayew struggled, and Mohammed Kudus delivered an average performance for the Black Stars.

James Akwesi Appiah is likely to be satisfied with a point after Ghana's 0-0 draw against Sudan in their 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier.

Despite dominating possession and creating chances, Ghana couldn’t break through Sudan’s solid defence.

Alexander Djiku hit the woodwork, and Antoine Semenyo came close, but Sudan’s goalkeeper, Mohammed Mustafa, made key saves.

Sudan also had chances, but Ghana’s Lawrence Ati-Zigi kept them at bay. Both teams fought hard, but the match ended goalless after 90 minutes.
