00:05The Black Satellites will look to avenge their 2019 generation
00:10that fell to the Lyonso de la Teronga.
00:14They're on the offensive, coming in first.
00:16It's spread out wide to the number 10.
00:18He's in the box, cutting onto his left foot.
00:20So close, dangerously sending a message.
00:24Issa in Europe.
00:27It's a good ball played into Ibrahima Diang.
00:30They didn't read each other well with Yaya Diem.
00:35But Yaya Diem does well to win it back.
00:37He's going forward with pace.
00:39He's going to shoot.
00:40And that's the first shot on target for the Lyonso de la Teronga.
00:44Yaya Diem called the Senegalese diamond by reports,
00:51playing his club football at Diogo.
00:54Perhaps one of the most talented promises of this squad.
01:00But he goes away from it.
01:01It's going to be shot from distance.
01:03It's a second shot on target.
01:04That was from the foot of Falou Diouf, the 18-year-old captain.
01:13Strong header by the number six of Senegal, Daouda Diong.
01:16But Jerry Afriye, can he be an assister tonight?
01:18He is!
01:19Jerry Afriye gets the assist.
01:21Beautiful pass.
01:22Oh, it's a shame because Senegal give it away in their own half.
01:26And the Black Satellites pounce.
01:28Oh, wonderfully done by Emmanuel Mensah, who gets on his wheels.
01:35He tried to do so a little bit earlier on this half against Ibrahim Adialo.
01:40But there he had nobody in front of him, no defenders at least.
01:43Takes advantage of the space and a clean finish.
01:47Just gets it to the right of the goalkeeper, of course.
01:51Let's see it again.
01:52Oh, it's a missed clearance.
01:53It's scuffed.
01:54And then Jerry Afriye, all the composure in the world to just lay on a beautiful ball on a plate.
02:01And Emmanuel Mensah eats.
02:04Oh, it's beautiful.
02:06The technique, the execution, the belief in himself.
02:10As Zen Menofi says, the hunger.
02:12The hunger of this Black Satellite side is on display tonight.
02:15And a wonderful celebration to match between him and Afriye.
02:21Similar to Cristiano Ronaldo and Marcelo during their Real Madrid days.
02:26For those of you, it's well defended that time, but they have to be alert.
02:32Those passes behind the back.
02:34Oh, it's free by Madieng.
02:35Can he get the best of his keeper?
02:37It's a pity.
02:38The shot goes above and beyond the target.
02:41That was an audacious effort.
02:43Oh, no.
02:44Not another giveaway.
02:45It's going to profit Jerry Afriye, who's one-on-one with the keeper.
02:47He's going to dribble him.
02:48He's going to round him.
02:49But it's a little bit late.
02:50Lots of Senegalese have come back.
02:52And Mohamed Sisoko did excellently to prevent Jerry Afriye from doubling the lead.
02:57Oh, another scare for Senegal.
02:59And they're doing it all to themselves.
03:01The recent group stage defeat was in 2015.
03:05Here comes Ian Singlinger.
03:07And that was to Nigeria.
03:09Strong header one.
03:12And there's a Senegalese player in the box.
03:14Oh, he just didn't get enough power behind the shot.
03:17Ibrahim Madieng.
03:18He's asking questions, however.
03:20The nations have only won once.
03:22They've done very well statistically in terms of how they play in their second group match.
03:27They have seven wins.
03:29Oh, this time it might go into the back of the net.
03:32It doesn't.
03:33So unfortunate for Les Lyonso de la Teronga.
03:36And it was Chiktidiane Thiam from the header.
03:40No, it wasn't.
03:42Excuse me.
03:43It was their own goal.
03:44Their own player.
03:45Forri McCarty.
03:46Who got in the way of his goalkeeper from punching the ball.
03:53It was a mistake by the defense of Senegal, which offered an opportunity for the Black Satellites.
04:01One that they took.
04:02They didn't need a second time of asking.
04:04Emmanuel Mensah converting from close range.
04:07Dondi plays his club football for Aris.
04:21Controlled directly by Abdurahman Dia.
04:27And exiting the pitch will be Faye.
04:34So, in the opening 45 minutes, Ghana had more possession.
04:3855% to around 45% for Senegal.
04:41Like a small victory for the Black Satellites.
04:45They hold on to possession.
04:46Here's Mensah.
04:48Afriye.
04:52Oh, it's a great touch from Opoku.
04:54Sidestepped and it was, again, a little bit too safe of an option from Opoku.
04:59Suleimana.
05:00And even the IU brothers.
05:02Here they come forward.
05:03The Black Satellites.
05:04Afriye is one-on-one.
05:05Is he going to pass it to a teammate?
05:07And it's just behind everyone.
05:09Aziz was lingering.
05:12It's not over just yet.
05:14But it seems like Senegal have braved the storm just a little bit.
05:18However, the Black Satellites are continuing on.
05:21But, yes, he's offside.
05:22It seems like he was a little bit too isolated to be onside there.
05:30Ofei, the manager of Ghana, who's safely captured by Jadion Asiako.
05:36It seems like all his saves have been...
05:38He's made all his saves look easy.
05:39The goalkeeper for Ghana this evening.
05:4220 years of age.
05:431.88m.
05:44He is a tall figure.
05:45You have to be careful.
05:46There's a few players on this pitch that are on a yellow card for Ghana.
05:51None on the pitch for Senegal who are on a booking.
05:56Again, another clearance by McCarthy.
05:59He's going to be called upon McCarthy.
06:01He's beaten to the ball this time.
06:03And the acrobatic effort by Ibrahim Adjeng doesn't sting the gloves by any means,
06:09but he's able to hit the target.
06:11Ibrahim Adjeng, who's nicknamed Pauleta for his clinical finishing.
06:22That would have...
06:23...show some urgency in their attacks.
06:25It all starts with those passes down the middle of the pitch
06:28where they're able to expose a little bit of space in the Ghanaian midfield.
06:34It's played wide to Amidou Baji.
06:36He's one-on-one.
06:37Can he showcase some skill?
06:38He does.
06:39It's a lofted cross.
06:40That does not have enough power to it.
06:41And it leaves for the attacker to have to generate it all on his in added time.
06:53Seems like there's three players around the ball.
06:55It's shot on target.
06:57And Asiako makes it look easy like he's done for most of his saves this match.
07:03Receives the thanks of his players.
07:05He bails them out.
07:07Yet again, it was the right foot of Clayton Dondi.
07:12Ghana have managed this victory with perfection.
07:18They've broken the curse of their West African records.
07:22And Senegal are defeated.
07:25The title holders have lost on match day two to a valiant Black Satellite side led by their manager Desmond Ofe.
07:34He wanted to see hunger.
07:35Hunger is what he got.
07:37And they capitalized on an early opportunity and then bolted the door shut.
07:42The Senegalese tried and tried and tried, but they always faltered whether it was through lack of conviction in finishing or good positioning from the goalkeeper of the Black Satellites.
