Angola coach Pedro Goncalves voiced his frustration with the poor condition of the Baba Yara Stadium pitch following his team’s 1-0 win over Ghana in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
Goncalves expressed that Ghana, a nation known for its footballing prowess, deserves a better playing surface.
The stadium’s poor condition affected the match, which Angola won in the final moments due to a mistake by Ghana’s Abdul Mumin.
Despite Ghana controlling possession, they suffered a setback in their AFCON qualifying campaign. Angola’s next match is against Sudan, while Ghana will face Niger.
