Forward Andre Ayew insists Ghana need to stay focused for their semi final clash against Equatorial Guinea on Thursday.

The Black Stars set up a clash with the tournament hosts following an impressive 3-0 win over Guinea on Sunday.

Ghana are overwhelming favourites to seal a place in the grand finale ahead of the hosts who are believed to have overachieved in the tournament.

But Ayew wants his teammates to remain alert to the threat of the sleek Equatoguineans who will have the whole nation behind them on Thursday.

“It is going to be very difficult so we need to stay calm, we need to concentrate,” he told Africanfootball.com.

“I know that Equatorial Guinea has a good squad but Ghana is also a big nation and we want to go to the finals.”
