Ghana’s squad for Saturday's 2013 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Malawi arrived in Lilongwe, Malawi.

The Black Stars play the Flames Saturday afternoon at 12:30 GMT in the reverse match of the final round as they lead 2-0 from the first leg.

Kwesi Appiah and his 21-man squad touched down Friday afternoon after setting a three-day camp in Kenya.

The team were watched by a decent crowd as they trained on a grass pitch at the CIVO Stadium in Lilongwe after the home team had trained.

Appiah said: “I think it's [training camp] been very successful. All the players participated very well. And everyone is very conscious of the fact that we need to qualify for the Africa Cup of Nations and for that reason everyone is showing efforts that he should be in the team which makes it more competitive, which is good for me.”

The aggregate winner advances to the next year's finals in South Africa.
