Local Black Stars Suffer CHAN Elimination

Ghana missed out on a fourth consecutive CHAN finals appearance after suffering elimination at the hands on Ivory Coast on the away-goals rule.

The Local Black Stars lost 1-0 on Friday to tie 2-2 on aggregate but that favoured the Elephants advance.


Davy Koffi Boua scored for Michel Dussuyer�s side on 35 minutes to go into the break with the lead at the�Robert Champroux de Marcory Stadium.

Ivory Coast did the job in Kumasi two weeks ago when they opened the scoring but succumbed 2-1 at the Baba Yara Stadium.

Ghana�s inability to qualify means both winners Libya and runners up will not be present at next year�s finals in Rwanda.
