Black Meteor’s Assistant coach Micheal Osei has insisted Ghana has a chance of qualifying to the AFCON U-23 tournament to be staged in Egypt in November despite the disappointing result against Algeria.

Ghana needed a late penalty from Dauda Mohammed to snatch a late draw against the Algerians at the Accra Sports Stadium.

Despite been the second-best team on the day, Micheal Osei believes the tie is far from over and Ghana will go to Algeria and surprise the home side at their own backyard.

“It was a very difficult game, we couldn’t play well in the first half and we got a chance to convert from the spot, but didn’t work for us.

“The tie is not over. We will go there to do our best to see if we can qualify, qualification is our target so we are going to Algeria to do our best to qualify” He told the media after the game.

“We can’t qualify without winning so we are going there to surprise and we are not afraid”

The return leg will come off on Tuesday, September 10 in Algiers.
