played 90 minutes against Egypt on Wednesday as Ghana set up an Africa Cup of Nations Quarter-Final tie with DR Congo.

With qualification for the last-eight already secured, the Black Stars needed just a point against Egypt to finish top of Group D, but former Chelsea winger Mohamed Salah struck in the 11th minute to help the seven-time AFCON winners beat Amartey’s nation 1-0.

The result means Ghana will now take on a DR Congo side that finished as Group C winners, dropping points only against pre-tournament favourites Ivory Coast, who did not advance to the knockout stages.

The clash will take place on Sunday 29 January (4pm kick-off GMT) at the 20,000-seater Stade d’Oyem in Gabon. Should Ghana win, they will face either Senegal or Cameroon in the semi-finals.

Amartey has so far featured in every group game for Ghana, who are looking to win the Africa Cup of Nations for the fifth time – their last title coming in 1982.
