Ghana has secured a tenth successive qualification for the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) after beating the Central African Republic on Thursday.

Ghana came from a goal down to win 2-1 agains the Central African Republic at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in the final matchday of qualifying.

The visitors took an early lead through Louis Mafouta but Mohammed Kudus levelled the score for Ghana in the 43rd minute from an incredible free kick.

Substitute Antoine Semenyo put in a perfect pass for fellow sub Ernest Nuamah to tap in for the winner in the 88th minute.

The last time the Black Stars failed to qualify for the premiere national team football competition in Africa was back in 2004.

Benin and Rwanda qualified ahead of Ghana after the Black Stars lost the final game of qualifying in Rwanda under German coach, Burkhard Ziese.

Hughton came in for the last four games of qualifying, winning three and drawing the other two.
