Ghana have been given a wake-up call ahead of the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt following a surprising 1-0 defeat to Namibia in a pre-tournament friendly on Sunday.
Mubarak Wakaso's missed penalty meant Manfred Starke's lone goal made the difference in the warm-up game played behind closed doors in Dubai.
The match was the last opportunity for players to stake a claim to the final Afcon squad, which is expected to be named by Monday.
With the exception of captain Andre Ayew and veteran striker Asamoah Gyan, every member of Ghana's team had a run-out as two separate sides started the first and second halves.
