Black Stars captain Andre Ayew has dedicated the teams win over Sudan to late Ghana President Jerry John Rawlings.
The former President passed away on Thursday, hours before the Black Stars battled their Sudanese counterparts at the Cape Coast stadium.
Andre Ayew who scored the two goals to secure the win paid glowing tribute to the iconic and charismatic former President.
He dedicated the team’s win in honour of the former President JJ Rawlings.
“We fought hard to get a win in honour of His Excellency J.J Rawlings. We know the history and his contribution to the growth of Ghana so the win is dedicated to him” Ayew added.
“These are hard times for the family but we wish them well. May God comfort and bless them.”
