The Senior National team the Black Stars come face -to -face with the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon in the Second Semi-Finals of the African Cup of Nations in the Gabonese City of Franceville today. 

In a repeat of the 2008 AFCON  in Accra at the same stage, the Stars are expected to revenge the defeat they suffered at the hands of then Captain Rigobert Song and Samuel Etoo. 

Ghana qualified to the Semi's of the AFCON by Kicking out D.R.Congo while Cameroom got to the same stage by edging out Senegal. 

Meanwhile, the Head coach of  the Cameroonian national team, Hugo Broos, is worried about Ghana’s record in the Africa Cup of Nations, after being in the last four of the competition for the sixth consecutive time. 

He said Ghana represents a very tough side with very experienced players and a good track record in the competition. 

According to him, today's game will be  tough because the Black Stars will come with a unique style, which will be very different from what Senegal presented.  

He added that he  has watched the Ghanaian team over and over again, therefore they have devised the right strategy to outwit them and they hope to work on that when they meet today.  

He explained that if they lose, it will be because Ghana is stronger not because they were disturbed by another factor.

The Cameroonians, last defeated Ghana by a lone goal in the semi finals of the 2008 Africa Cup of Nations, hosted by Ghana. 


Kick off is at 7pm Ghana time.
