Afcon 2019: We were not too good against Ghana - Benin coach Dussuyer

Benin coach Michel Dussuyer says his side were not at their best against Ghana on Tuesday, and must up their game for Saturday's fixture with Guinea-Bissau at the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt.

The Squirrels opened their Group For adventure with a point as they played out a 2-2 draw with the Black Stars at the Ismailia Stadium.

A win on Saturday will not only give Benin their first ever victory at the continental fiesta, but all but guarantees a historic qualification to the round of 16.

"Technically, I think we were not too good against Ghana, but like I said before we came here to learn and acquire experience," Dussuyer told Goal.
