'We were not good enough' - Jordan Ayew on 'woeful' AFCON exit

According to him, the Black Stars' performances were not good enough admitting that for a young side, there was more room to correct the mistakes of the AFCON and to do better in the future.

Milovan Rajevac's side ended bottom of Group C at the AFCON with one draw (to Gabon) and two losses (to Morocco and Comoros).

The loss against Comoros was recorded earlier today in Garoua where the team lost 3 - 2 to the first-timers.

Speaking after the game, Jordan, who failed to register a goal in the three matches he played lamented the group exit.

“We were not good enough, we have a young squad, it’s a wake-up call for everyone and if we don’t learn from this then I don’t know,” the state broadcaster GTV quoted him as having said.

The last time the Black Stars exited an AFCON without a win was in 2006.
