2027 AFCONQ: It was good to keep a clean sheet against Somalia – Jonas Adjetey after Black Stars’ win

Ghana's defender Jonas Adjetey expressed joy after scoring his first goal for the Black Stars and helping the team keep a clean sheet in their 2-0 victory over Somalia in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers. The four-time African champions secured their first win of the qualifying campaign on Thursday at the Essipong Sports Stadium, following a disappointing start to their campaign.

Adjetey, who opened the scoring for Ghana, was pleased with the team's defensive display and the improvement after conceding four goals in their opening two matches. The result moves Ghana to third place in Group C with three points, but they remain on a negative two goal difference. Ghana will face Somalia again on Monday, 16 November, in the return fixture at the Essipong Sports Stadium as they seek another victory to revive their qualification hopes.
