Baba Iddrisu

Black stars midfielder Baba Idrissu will miss out of Ghana’s dicey clash with Comoros due to a hamstring injury he sustained against Gabon.

‘’The scan results revealed Oedema in his hamstring and so at the moment he can’t play against Comoros on Tuesday’’ Doctor Adam Baba told ghanafa.org after returning from the Garoua Military hospital on Monday.

The RCD Mallorca midfielder limped out of last Friday’s second Group B match against Gabon in Yaounde in the 65th minute of the encounter.

Ghana faces a tough test against Comoros after a disappointing start to their TotalEnergies Africa Cup of Nations, Cameroon 2021 campaign that saw them win just a point in two games.

The Black stars are hoping to avoid an early exit when they face debutants Comoros, who lost their first two games as well.

Its a must win game for Ghana if they want to avoid an embarrassing exit at the Roumde Adjia Stadium, Garoua on Tuesday.

The game is at 20:00 local time (19:00 GMT)
