The Black Stars technical team, spearheaded by head coach Otto Addo, is preparing to make bold decisions as they aim to secure a spot in the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Lessons from Ghana’s failed 2025 AFCON qualification campaign will heavily influence their strategy.
Despite the disappointment of missing out on AFCON, the World Cup qualifiers have been a rollercoaster of mixed results. Ghana opened with a win against Madagascar, stumbled with a defeat to Comoros, but regained momentum with victories over the Central African Republic and Mali.
Currently, Ghana sits second in Group I with nine points after four games, level with Comoros. As the qualifiers resume in March 2025, the Black Stars face Chad in a pivotal clash.
Ghanaians, still distressed from their AFCON heartbreak, are demanding a stronger, more consistent performance. The technical team’s upcoming decisions could be the key to reigniting national pride and keeping Ghana’s World Cup dreams alive.
