Leeds United striker, Caleb Ekuban, who made his debut appearance for the Ghana National Team at AFCON 2019 has apologized to Ghanaians for playing a weak penalty which caused Tunisia to triumph over Ghana yesterday.
Ekuban who seems tensed up yesterday walked to the ball only to play it into the hands of the Tunisian goal keeper, Farouk Ben Mustapha.
This has caused the flood gates of insults to be poured on him by Ghanaians.
Taking to Twitter to apologize, Ekuban wrote; “I’m really sorry”. As Ghanawish.com monitored
As it stands, the Carthage Eagles of Tunisia will be meeting with the Barea of Madagascar at the quarter-final stage of the competition.
The match between Ghana and Tunisia ended 1-1 after Taha Khenissi’s shot went into the post of the Black Stars but the Stars levelled up the game after Rami Bedoui headed into his own net to force the game into extra-time.
With neither side able to find a winner in the 30 minutes, the match went to penalties where Caleb Ekuban’s miss had an effect on the Black Stars from processing into the next stage of the competition.
The Black Stars also got a goal scored against the Tunisians wrongfully disallowed by the referee.
