- The Black Stars were held at home by the Super Eagles in the first leg of the World Cup play-off in Kumasi
There was drama during Black Stars' training session at the Moshood Abiola Stadium in Abuja ahead of their second-leg World Cup play-offs against Nigeria.
Coach Otto Addo and his men landed in Nigeria's capital on Monday afternoon to prepare for the blockbuster clash against the Super Eagles.
The Ghanaian contingent wasted no time training a few hours later as preparations continue for the big game.
However, while training the light went off, leaving the Black Stars stranded and had to abruptly end their exercise.
The pre-game press conference was also affected by the absence of lights at the same venue.
This has caused Ghanaians to express their displeasure on social media as the team is thrown into total darkness during their training session.
