Masahudu Alhassan was thrilled with his African Cup of Nations full debut and hopes he gets another opportunity to play in the competition for Ghana.

The left-back made the starting team on Saturday in Ghana's 2-0 victory over Mali and put in an assured performance to last the entire game after coming on as a second half substitute in the opening match against Botswana.

In a post-game interview the youngster admitted he was a "bit surprised" to be handed a starting role by Goran Stevanovic in the crucial Group D clash.

“I was a little bit surprised and I knew it wouldn’t be easy for me. But my colleagues helped with lots of advice and I am very happy with everything,” Alhassan said minutes after kick off.

With a dream start in the bag, the defender who made his senior debut in an international friendly with Nigeria last October says he is yearning for more playing time.

“I hope I get to start the next game,” he added.
