Ghana’s amputee football team, the Black Challenge, has defied the odds to successfully defend the Amputee Africa Cup of Nations trophy won in 2021.
The Ghanaians came from a goal down to beat their Moroccan counterparts 2-1 in the final played on Monday, May 27 at the Petro Sports Stadium in Cairo, Egypt.
Outstanding player Mohammed Mubarak got Ghana’s two goals, first equalising in the second half and then getting the winner in extra time.
