Black Stars coach, Chris Hughton has reiterated the importance of Ghana making an appearance at the next year AFCON in Ivory Coast. Ghana need a draw or a win in their final group game against Central African Republic on September 3 in Kumasi. The Black Stars currently top Group E with 9 points. However, the coach remains mindful of the stiff competition from Angola and the Central African Republic, who closely trail with 8 and 7 points, respectively.
