The West Ham ace is urging Ghana to commence preparations for the next Afcon, following a 'deserving' defeat to Cameroon on Thursday.
Ghana deputy captain Andre Ayew is disappointed by their semi-final reversal to Cameroon at the Africa Cup of Nations in Gabon. The Black Stars conceded twice as the Indomitable Lions recorded a 2-0 victory in Franceville on Thursday.

Michael Ngadeu-Ngadjui opened the scoring when John Boye made a hash of a free-kick clearance, with goalkeeper Razak Brimah having also misread, before Christian Bassogog elegantly slotted home on 90 minutes following a neat counter-break.

"We are very disappointed because I think we couldn't play our game.'' We didn't manage to do what we do best,'' Ayew said

"We have to be honest, Cameroon deserved the victory. We didn't do what we had to do, so we are very disappointed; there's not much to say.We just need to shut up, go home, work and prepare for the next two years."
