Controversial sports journalist, Patrick Osei Agyemang alias Countryman Songo has slammed Black Stars goalkeeper Lawrence Ati-Zigi for his role in Ghana’s defeat to Sudan in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
Songo, during an edition of his Fire for Fire show, relived the incident that led to Sudan’s first goal in the game played on Tuesday, October 15, 2024.
Songo could not believe that Ati-Zigi could dive in a manner that allowed the ball to pass through his legs.
The Black Stars of Ghana suffered their second defeat in the 2025 AFCON qualifiers after falling to coach Kwasi Appiah’s Sudan in Libya.
Ahmed Hamed Mahmoud Mohammed and Yousif Yagoub scored the two goals for Sudan to defeat the Black Stars.
The Sudanese team, led by Ghanaian James Kwasi Appiah, dominated the game and created good chances, which resulted in their deserved victory.
