According to Stephen Appiah, the Black Stars are prepared to play Mali and Chad.
Ghana’s National Men’s Football Team, the Black Stars, are prepared to play against Chad and Mali in the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, according to former Black Stars captain Stephen Appiah.
Ghana will play Mali in the Accra Sports Stadium on Monday, September 8, after playing Chad at N’Djamena on Thursday, September 4.
With 15 points from six games, Ghana leads Group I. They have won five of those games, and victories over Mali and Chad would almost guarantee the Black Stars a spot in the World Cup next year.
The upcoming World Cup will be hosted in the US, Canada and Mexico and Appiah believes that the team is ready to compete in the latest qualifiers after witnessing the team’s first training session on Monday, September 1.
“Talking to them, they are ready to play the two games and we all know that we have two crucial games that will determine our chances for the World Cup. We believe that the guys will make it” Appiah said.
After playing at the 2006 and 2010 World Cup, Appiah is serving as the Vice Chairman of the Black Stars Management Committee.
