Ghana striker Boakye-Yiadom: Black Stars can bring the Afcon home

Ghana and Red Star Belgrade forward Richmond Boakye-Yiadom has stated that the Black Stars must avoid complacency to progress to the second round of the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt.

On their 22nd appearance at the continental showpiece, the four-time champions have been drawn alongside Cup holders Cameroon, Benin and Guinea-Bissau in Group F.

The tournament is scheduled to run between June 21 and July 19.

“It’s not an easy group because any team [that has] made it to the Africa Cup of Nations deserves to be there," former Juventus recruit Boakye told Ghanasoccernet.
