"Like I said before the game, every team that plays Ghana comes into the game to fight hard for a win. We take nothing from Gambia, they came out to win the game and took advantage of their chances," Zito said after the game, as reported by Ghanafa.org.
"We didn’t get the result we wanted but qualification to the next round is key because we have another opportunity to correct our mistakes.
"We have not lost hope because finishing third does not mean we can’t achieve our ultimate targets."
Ghana opened the scoring in Monday's game through Abdul Fatawu Issahaku but Kajally Drammeh and Lamarana Jallow hit back for Gambia to turn the score around.
