On Tuesday, Ghana secured a spot in the last 16 of the Africa Cup of Nations with a 2-0 win over Guinea-Bissau in Suez.

Jordan Ayew scored the first goal just seconds after halftime, and Thomas Partey sealed the victory with a well-placed shot.

The win ensured Ghana finished top of Group F, with Cameroon drawing 0-0 with Benin in Ismailia.

Guinea Bissau had several scoring opportunities, but their shots hit the woodwork three times.

As a result of winning the group on goal difference, Ghana will face the team that finishes second in Group E in Ismailia on Monday.

Cameroon, on the other hand, will face Nigeria in Alexandria on Saturday.
