The Black Stars were beaten 2-0 at the semi-final stage by Cameroon at the Stade de Franceville in Gabon on Thursday.

Newcastle's Christian Atsu played the full game, just as he had done in his side's four previous games in the competition.However despite their exit, Atsu won't be heading back to Tyneside just yet; Ghana will now face Burkina Faso in a third/fourth place-play-off on Saturday.
