The Black Stars of Ghana displayed a splendid performance against the Leopards of Congo DR to make it to the semifinals of the 2017 Afcon.

Two goals from the Ayew brothers, Jordan and Andre won the day for Ghana with Mpoku pulling one back for the Leopards.

Jordan Ayew skillfully outwitted two Congo DR defenders to slot home a long drive to give Ghana the lead in the 63rd minute but the Leopards responded swiftly with Mpoku firing a 30-yarder shot to fetch the equalizer five minutes later.

Deputy captain of the side Andre Ayew who captained the side in Gyan’s absence expertly converted a spot kick when Atsu was brought down in the 78th minute.

Ghana will meet the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon in the semifinals of the competition.
