Black Stars captain Andre Ayew says Ghana’s shocking 2023 Africa Cup of Nations exit is part of things that happen in football.

Some Ghanaians are still in shock as to how the national team gave away a two goal lead in a chaotic four minutes of added time against Mozambique in their final group game.

Andre Ayew released a statement to apologise for what happened and his role in the embarrassing exit, adding that such things only make you stronger.

“In football, these are things that happen. These are things that make you stronger. What doesn’t kill makes you stronger individually and collectively,” he said.

Ghana missed out on a place in the Round of 16 after finishing third in a group consisting of Cape Verde, Egypt and Mozambique.

The Black Stars lost 2-1 to Cape Verde before back to back 2-2 draws against Egypt and Mozambique confirmed Ghana’s elimination from the tournament.

The Black Stars, for the second successive tournament, exited at the group stages without registering a win, extending the country's wait for its fifth AFCON title to 42 years.
