Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah has expressed his disappoint as his side lost to Mexico by a goal to nil in an international friendly in Houston, USA.

The El Tri of Mexico faced a torrid time in the opening minutes, as the Black Stars successfully pulled their passing strings together with perfection.

The South Americans shot themselves into the lead in the 32nd minute through a controversial penalty awarded in their favor.

Frank Acheampong had a one-on-one chance but the Ghana midfielder failed to capitalize on the opportunity, as his left-foot shot went over the post.

“Sometimes if it is not your day, it’s not your day,” Appiah said.

“Considering the way we played, we could have had at least three or four goals easily. But unfortunately we could not finish,” he added.

The four-time African champions will be facing the USA senior side on July 1, 2017.
