World Cup-bound Ghana conceded a last-gasp equaliser ​to host Wales to draw ‌1-1 in a friendly international ​on Tuesday and extended ⁠its winless run to six matches.

Lewis Koumas netted with a diving ‌header three minutes into stoppage time after Ghana looked ‌on its way to ‌a ⁠morale-boosting victory ahead of ⁠its departure to this month’s tournament in Canada, Mexico and the United States.

Substitute ​Caleb Yirenkyi ‌snapped up a rebound off the upright to convert from close range in the 66th ‌minute to give Ghana ​the lead after a bursting run from the halfway ⁠line from Ernest Nuamah.

It was one of Ghana’s rare forward ‌forays in a match which Wales dominated but failed to take its chances.

The home side came closest in the first half when Dan James ‌first had a point-blank header palmed ​away by Ghana goalkeeper Lawrence Ati-Zigi and then hit ⁠the crossbar minutes later.

Ghana’s opening ⁠game in Group L at the World Cup is ‌against Panama in Toronto on June 17.
