The entire Black Stars contingent are expected in Accra on Sunday afternoon from Kumasi to begin training for Wednesday's clash with Togo's Hawks after their uninspiring show against Uganda on Saturday. 

Kwesi Appiah is seeking to galvanize his squad with hopes of bringing a new spirit into his team after their lackluster display on Saturday in 1-1 draw with Uganda's Cranes and will lead them into two training sessions in Accra before they fly to Lome.

Togo, who face Ghana in the second Group E game, have already arrived home after losing 1-0 against ten-man Guinea in a nail-biting game that came off in Casablanca - Morocco.

The Hawks were without Tottenham Hotspur star striker Emmanuel Adebayor for the Guinea game through injury. However, they will be hoping to have him available to face Ghana as they seek victory to improve their chances of qualifying for the 2015 AFCON.

Ghana's performance against Uganda was nowhere close to impressive as angry home fans jeered and booed the players during the game.

Olympique Marseille's Andre Ayew had to slam home a second-half penalty to help Ghana hold the Cranes to a 1-1 draw.
