The captain of the side that drew at home and lost to Sudan away in Libya issued the apology on his official social media pages.&nbsp;

He expressed the entire team’s regret for disappointing the people of Ghana.&nbsp;

“As someone who captained the team in the two games, it is with great humility and a deep sense of responsibility that I issue this statement.&nbsp;

“On behalf of the entire team, I would like to extend our sincerest apologies to the people of Ghana for our recent performances against Sudan in Accra and Libya,” he said dejectedly.&nbsp;

Kudus said the outcome of both games does not reflect the players' goals and that they take pride in wearing the national team jersey anytime they wear it.&nbsp;&nbsp;
