AFCON 2015:Five Ghana vrs Senegal facts
Five facts for the Africa Cup of Nations Group C match between Ghana and Senegal on Monday in Equatorial Guinea town Mongomo:
Ghana boast an unbeaten Cup of Nations record against Senegal, coming from behind twice in 1968 to draw 2-2 and winning 1-0 in 1994 and 1-0 again 12 years later.
The Black Stars of Ghana hope to go all the way in Equatorial Guinea after finishing second, third, and fourth twice in the past four Cup of Nations tournaments.
Senegal want to erase memories of their last visit to Equatorial Guinea in 2012 when they were touted as potential champions only to be beaten by Zambia, Libya and the host nation.
New Ghana coach Avram Grant took Chelsea to the 2008 Champions League final, which they lost on penalties to fellow English Premier League giants Manchester United in Moscow.
The Teranga Lions of Senegal, who came closest to African glory by finishing runners-up behind Cameroon in 2002, have won just one of their last 11 Cup of Nations matches.
