Ghanaian forward marks Black Stars debut against Mozambique

Black Stars striker Ebenezer Assifuah will play his first game for the senior national team of Ghana against Mozambique in Maputo

The FC Sion forward who has been consistent in form and gets in the goals occasionally at club level earned another call from Avram Grant to the Black Stars team for the AFCON qualifiers.

Assifuah however sat out of the first game against Mozambique at the Accra Sports Stadium after the injured Asamoah Gyan was replaced by FC Lorient striker Abdul Majeed Waris.

The 22-year-old striker got the nod ahead of the return fixture against Mozambique in Maputo, partnering Aston Villa striker Jordan Ayew upfront.
