Sensational Turnaround: Mozambique Holds Ghana to 2-2 Draw with Dramatic Late Goals

In a sensational turn of events, Mozambique staged a remarkable comeback by scoring two stoppage-time penalties to secure a dramatic 2-2 draw against Ghana at the TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations. Despite Jordan Ayew’s two first-half penalties giving Ghana a seemingly comfortable lead, Mozambique mounted a late fightback. Geny Catamo converted a penalty in the 90th minute and Reinildo Mandava slammed in another in the dying moments to steal a point. The astonishing comeback leaves Ghana still searching for their first victory in AFCON 2023 after three matches. With both teams exiting the group stage, Ghana’s chances of progressing depend on other results.
