Ghana’s quest for redemption after their recent loss to Nigeria was thwarted as they were forced to settle for a draw against Uganda in another international friendly clash at the Grande Stade Marrakech in Morocco.

In his return as head coach of the Black Stars, Otto Addo is yet to secure his first victory following the 2-2 deadlock against the Cranes, who twice managed to level the score on Tuesday.

Addo made five changes to the squad that suffered defeat against Nigeria, handing full debuts to Ebenezer Annan and Francis Abu, with Joseph Wollacott taking the goalkeeper position.

The Black Stars took an early lead just seven minutes into the game when central defender Jerome Opoku headed in a corner kick, marking his first international goal from a cross by captain Jordan Ayew.

However, the Cranes equalized in the 23rd minute after a penalty was conceded by left-back Ebenezer Annan, confidently converted by Asante Kotoko forward Steven Dese Mukwala.

Ghana reclaimed the lead with Jordan converting from the penalty spot.

Uganda once again managed to equalize with eight minutes left in the game when substitute Muhammad Shaban found the net from close range.

Ghana faced further adversity when Mohammed Salisu received a red card in the latter stages, leaving them with ten men.

The Black Stars’ winless streak now extends to seven matches across all competitions, comprising four draws and three defeats.

Looking ahead, Ghana’s next international break in June will feature matches against Mali and the Central African Republic in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
