Ghana secured their first win of the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers on Tuesday, beating Somalia 2-0 at the Essipong Stadium to pick up their first three points in Group C.
The four-time African champions went into the game bottom of the group with no points, having lost to Ivory Coast and The Gambia in their opening two matches.
Goals either side of half-time from Jonas Adjetey and Felix Afena-Gyan were enough to secure the much-needed victory for the Black Stars.
The result lifts the side of Kim Lars Bjokegren into third place in the group.
Ghana and Somalia will meet again in the return fixture on November 16 at the Essipong Stadium in Takoradi.
The Black Stars are determined to avoid missing back-to-back AFCON tournaments, having failed to qualify for the last edition in Morocco.
