"We are grateful to the fans. They always support us anytime we come around for a match, " Gyan told reporters.

"Look at the number of people here, it's amazing considering that this is just a training exercise. It gives us huge motivation to always give our best. I commend them for that and I hope they can troop the stadium in their numbers on Friday to support us."

Black Stars will enplane to Brazzaville for the return leg on September 4.
