Ghana midfielder Abdul Samed Salis has shared his excitement after playing for the first time in the country for the Black Stars.
The RC Lens star was a second-half substitute as the four-time African champions laboured to a 1-0 win over the Palancas Negras.
Salis’ introduction added some spark to the Black Stars as the team earned a vital win in Kumasi.
He wrote on Twitter: “First home game. First win.”
Antoine Semenyo, who also came on in the second-half, was the hero of the match after scoring late in extra time.
Salis and his teammates are expected to leave Ghana on Sunday for the second-leg in Luanda on Monday.
The Black Stars will secure qualification to the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations if they beat Angola in Luanda.
Ghana sit top of Group E with seven points after three games, three points clear off second-place Angola while Central African Republic sit third with four points.
