U23 AFCON 2023Q: Afriyie Barnieh, Issahaku and Nuamah start for Black Meteors against Algeria
Black Meteors head coach, Ibrahim Tanko, has named a strong team for Ghana’s final U23 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier game against Algeria.
Ghana hosts Algeria at the Baba Yara Stadium in the second leg of the tie following a 1-1 draw in Annaba last week Friday, March 25.
Daniel Afriyie Barnieh starts the game for the Black Meteors after serving his suspension for a red card he picked during the CHAN tournament earlier this year.
The FC Zurich forward will play alongside Abdul Fatawu Issaku and FC Nordsjaelland’s Ernest Nuamah in the team’s attack.
Basel’s Emmanuel Essiam also makes the starting lineup while there is no place for Augustine Randolf who was penalised for Algeria’s equaliser in the first leg.
The game is scheduled to kick off at 16:00 GMT.
