We have what it takes to qualify for World Cup – Otto Addo

Head coach of the Black Stars Otto Addo, has backed the team and technical body of the Black Stars to book Ghana’s fourth ticket to the FIFA World Cup.

The Black Stars after beating South Africa in the final group game of the qualifiers, were in January drawn to face Nigeria in the qualifying play-offs.

Due to an abysmal performance at the Africa Cup of Nations which was staged in Cameroon, scores of fans and some sections of the media have downplayed the Black Stars chances but Addo is confident of qualification.

“We are only a few days away from playing our crucial match against rivals Nigeria. We all expect Ghana to qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar but that won’t be easy as we need to do our best to make it to this tournament. The players, the technical team and the Ghana Football Association are committed to this task, we want to make ourselves and nation proud by qualifying for the tournament.

“Matches between Ghana and Nigeria are always difficult but we believe in our players, our strategies and the unflinching support of all Ghanaians as we go into these two matches. We are Ghana and we have what it takes to come out victorious,” Addo said.

The 46-year old was confirmed as Ghana’s head coach for the two games after the dismissal of Serb, Milovan Rajevac.

The Black Stars will host Nigeria in Kumasi on Friday March 25, before travelling to Abuja for the return fixture.
