At the Accra Stadium, Frank Acheampong opened the score after four minutes to give Avram Grant's team a strong lead. And the attacker for Anderlecht separated the two teams into halftime.

After the break, stand-in captain John Boye extended the advantage after eleven minutes, and two minutes later, Jordan Ayew lobbed the Os Mambas goalie to make it 3-0 for Ghana.

However, Apson Manjate's header of a cross at the far post gave the visitors a chance to equalise.

The video was shared by @kayjnr10 on X, formerly Twitter.

Netizens react to the video

YEN.com.gh has compiled some comments under the video. While some are hopeful that Ghana can beat Mozambique again, others also expressed doubt. See some below:

Ashimeru: Why Ghanaian Footballer's Goal Against Cape Verde Was Cancelled

In another story, Ashimeru's goal that was cancelled has been explained by an expert.

According to the FIFA rules, a player is penalised for offside at the time the ball is touched or played by one of his teammates. This means that every inch of a player’s head, body or feet must be in front of the last defender when the ball is passed to them.
