AFCON 2021: Ghana Captain Andre Ayew Reveals Reason For 40-Year AFCON Drought

Andre Ayew has revealed the reason for 40 years AFCON drought for Ghana despite being on finals for three times.

According to the Black Starsa captain, the reason for 40 years AFCON drought for Ghana is lack of luck because the team has done incredibly well at the tournament.

I wouldn’t say there is a problem, I think we have been unlucky and the last editions. I think we have the best African record of the team getting in the last four or the finals in the last 10 to 15 years,” he said at the pre-match press conference for the game against Morocco.
