The Black Galaxies of Ghana are gearing up for a pivotal clash against Nigeria’s Super Eagles B team in the second leg of the qualifiers for the 2024 African Nations Championship (CHAN).
The team is scheduled to depart Ghana via a chartered flight on Friday, December 30, en route to Nigeria.
According to the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), the Black Galaxies will first land in Port Harcourt before making their way to Uyo by road after completing immigration formalities. In a post shared on X, the NFF provided updates on the travel arrangements:
“Chan Qualifier update 🗢️: Ghana’s Black Galaxies now to fly into Port Harcourt aboard a chartered aircraft in the morning of Friday, 27 December for their CHAN final qualifier with Super Eagles B. They will connect Uyo by road after immigration formalities in PH,” NFF said in a post.
As the decisive encounter approaches, both teams remain eager to secure a place in next year’s CHAN tournament, which will be co-hosted by Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania.
The Black Galaxies concluded their preparations in Ghana with a final training session on Boxing Day at the Accra Sports Stadium. Head coach Mas Ud Didi Dramani led the session, putting the 26-member squad through its paces in a bid to fine-tune strategies for the high-stakes match.
The first leg of the tie, held at the Accra Sports Stadium last Sunday, ended in a goalless draw, leaving everything to play for in the return fixture. Despite the stalemate, coach Didi Dramani remains optimistic about his team’s chances, emphasizing their readiness to deliver a strong performance in Nigeria.
With the backing of a dedicated squad and rigorous preparations, the Black Galaxies are determined to secure a favourable outcome and book their ticket to the prestigious CHAN tournament.
