Togo captain Emmanuel Adebayor wants revenge against Ghana
Togo captain Emmanuel Adebayor believes his side
can pull off a massive surprise by beating Ghana
on home soil to qualify for the 2015 Africa Cup of
Nations.

The Hawks must secure an unlikely win over the
Black Stars in their final AFCON qualifier in
Tamale on Wednesday to clinch one of the two
automatic qualification slots available in Group
E.

Togo are highly unlikely to secure the surprise
result especially after falling to a 3-2 defeat to
Ghana in the first leg encounter back in
September.

But the Tottenham Hotspurs striker is urging his
international teammates to draw inspiration from
that defeat to secure their qualification for next
year’s finals to be staged in Equatorial
Guinea.

“What Ghana came to do in Kégué [back in
September], we can and must do in Tamale. We can
do,” Adebayor said.

“It will be a tough game, but we must give one
hundred percent to win the qualification.”

A draw will be just enough for Ghana to sail
through but Togo needs an outright win on
Wednesday on away grounds to make the finals.
