Nantes winger Osman Bukari scored his debut goal for the Black Stars on Wednesday as Ghana recorded a 3-0 win over Madascar in their 2023 African Cup qualifier at the Cape Coast Stadium.

The Nantes winger came on with 15 minutes of normal time remaining and he made an impact by scoring the Black Stars’ third goal.

Bukari pounced on a loose ball, confidently dribbled past the onrushing goalkeeper, and placed the ball into an empty net.

With just four minutes to go until the full-time whistle, Bukari rounded off the Madagascar goalkeeper before making it 3-0 after receiving a from Mohammed Kudus.

Osman was just making his fifth appearance for the Black Stars, having made his debut against South Africa in Johannesburg in 2021.

Mohammed Kudus opened the scoring in the 53rd minute of the game slotting the ball into the net after being found by Afena-Gyan.

The result against Madagascar sees Otto Addo record his first win as the head coach of the national team.
