“Black Stars clean sheet against Somalia is a big relief” – Jonas Adjetey

Ghana's Black Stars secured a 2-0 victory over Somalia in their 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, a win that provided a much-needed relief for the team. Interim coach Kim Lars Björkegren welcomed the result as it marked the first victory for the squad since consecutive defeats to Côte d’Ivoire and The Gambia. For defender Jonas Adjetey, the win held special meaning as he scored his first goal for the senior national team.

Adjetey expressed his joy at netting the goal, stating that he had been eagerly awaiting this moment for some time. He also praised his teammates for their support and the positive defensive performance, noting that the clean sheet was achieved after conceding four goals in their previous two matches. Adjetey acknowledged that these goals were not the fault of any single player but emphasized the importance of collective improvement.

The Black Stars will aim to maintain their defensive progress in their upcoming match against Somalia.
