Team interview
"He (Moteab) picked up a hamstring injury and he's likely to miss the final,'' assistant coach Hamada Sedki confirmed.
"There is not enough time between the semi-finals and the final, so his chance to be fit for the game is slim.''
For Ghana not to have any injury worries would seem almost abnormal at this year's competition.
The Black Stars are sweating heavily over the fitness of goalkeeper Richard Kingson, who has a groin problem.
The Wigan goalkeeper was named man-of-the-match for his display in the 1-0 semi-final win over Nigeria and is doubtful along with Agyeman Opoku and Hans Sarpei, both of whom were substituted in the game against their west African rivals.
"Richard has had to skip a couple of training sessions because of the injury,'' coach Milovan Rajevac said. "He is in hospital today (Friday) to have tests and treatment, but I'm hopeful he will be able to play on Sunday.''
It will be a first appearance in the final after an 18 year absence for the four-time former winners.
However, their last title came in 1982 when only five of the current squad members were born.
