Ghana U23 coach Ibrahim Tanko has altered his squad to face Gabon in the return fixture of the U23 AFCON Qualifier with Bernard Terkpetey handed a starting role.

The former Schalke 04 striker will be partnered up front by Kwabena Owusu as Ghana hope to record another win to secure qualification to the next phase of the competition.

Terkpetey started from the bench in the first leg in Ghana and scored with his first touch to increase the tally for Ghana who were leading by a lone goal.

Ghana’s line up looks more attacking with Joseph Paintsil and Osman Bukari playing on the flanks.

Tanko kept faith with his first choice goalkeeper Kwame Baah and defensive set up of Musah Nuhu, Zakaria Fuseini, Kingsley Fobi and Gideon Mensah.
