Ghana coach, Otto Addo has revealed that the Black Stars have the quality to overcome any team at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Black Stars. who are the lowest-ranked team at the tournament have been drawn in Group H alongside Portugal, South Korea and Uruguay.
Ghana will take on Portugal in their first game on November 24 before playing South Korea and Uruguay on November 28 and December 2 respectively.
“We have a lot of quality. I see that in training and in our matches too. It was an especially tough game against Nigeria but we competed with them even though we’d made a lot of changes,” coach Addo told FIFA.
“The players adapted very well and very quickly. I think we’ve got a bright future ahead of us with all the talented young players we have, especially because we have the right balance with the older and more experienced players.
“We’re in good shape defensively, we read the game well and have a good feel for when to press the opposition at the right time. We’ve got a great deal of quality up front, our individual class. We can do damage one-on-one and with our speed.”

. . . just a few days left for first STRICTLY NUMBERED (3) games. And then this noise will fade. . .
So if u don’t believe in the noise,BET AGAINST Ghana!
Put ur money where ur heart is and let see
Oga Selfmade, don’t mind those jealous idiots
It was good Ghana qualified, because they needed it more and fought hard for it at the expense of SE, not that there were better
While I wish Ghana the best in Qatar 2023,they seems not to have the required players and even technical depth to go past round 16,but if they do fine and better for Ghana and mother Africa.
At the same time , we hope an African team can go all the way to semi or the finals this time.
It’s just a game and not a fight…All the best
@Yaw,not all of us are jealous,of course we would have loved to be in Qatar but our sports minister thinks otherwise so in other words,you guys fully deserved to be there.
The reason some of us would rather you have a bad world cup is your lack of respect and hate for Nigeria.You kept rubbing it in our faces,making a mockery of us calling us chickens,your wife,you and your compatriots have a very low opinion of us and our national teams and would rather we fail which comes from a dark heart.You guys hate Nigeria so much,you take that hate to the football pitch,won’t be surprised you use charm against us yous are that desperate,you will apply everything possible both physical and spiritual when it comes to playing against the super eagles that’s why I don’t like us playing your team,end of the day football is just a sports anyway,that’s how it’s seen or viewed in Nigeria but that’s not the case with Ghana who sees it as a war especially against the super eagles and would go the extra mile to win.
You got the better of us good for yous.Whether we wish you well or not it doesn’t stop Ghana excelling if they play better than their opponents,so do not worry about what people are wishing you rather focus on your team and the task ahead.
@Greenturf, hahahahahaha, I like the charm bit. Bro no Ghanaian wakes up in the morning thinking about hating Nigerians. It’s what you did in the lead up to the two games we played. So after winning, a little bit of rubbing in should be expected. Your sports minister even admonished your team to beat the shit out of us. Where were you to advise him to mind his language at the time. A lot of nonsense was written about ghana by your fellow countrymen on this page. Where were you to advise them to tone down, that it’s just a football match ? You have all of a sudden decided to be a pope preaching peace. Masa, world cup is starting on Sunday and your whole country is depressed watching from home. You see, when you think u know more than everybody and so full of yourself, that’s what happens to you. Until you show some respect to the name Ghana as a better football country you will always suffer defeat. At least your write up today is a bit matured and that’s why I’m responding to you in a nice way. Some of your countrymen here are idiots who always write rubbish when they see the name Ghana. Let me go enjoy my 2-0 victory against Switzerland . @ Greenturf, can this your super eagles team beat the Swiss 2-0?. We are waiting for your wotowoto scoreline against Portugal. Greetings from Accra.
The taste of the pounding is in the eating. Get there and Ghana shall discover sooner that, the way you call mama is not the way you call papa. Your fasting/holiday nationally may not help much if you don’t have the natural football culture that your opponent’s possess.
Bet dawg! Or maybe u broke
WOTOWOTO LOADING……….
Well said Brodaman Pompei. You are one of the few people who make me come here to comment. We don’t want Selfmade junk here again. Ghana will suffer.
We enjoy suffering. Na wat be your problem? Mind your business
These Ghanaians are permanently fixated on Nigeria, and unable to move on from the qualifiers even with the world cup proper already here. Everybody in Ghana keep talking of the game against Nigeria as if that will win them their matches. To Ghana, getting past Nigeria is equivalent to winning the world cup. That tells you how much respect Ghanaians have for the super eagles.
Is like Nigeria defeating Brazil. They know we are far better them, to call a spade a spade. Lolzzzz
So NIGERIAN players doesn’t use juju right?
So there are no Nigerians that taunted Ghana prior to the qualifiers right?
So what what happens to WE LL BEAT THE HELL outta of Ghana in Kumasi by a whole NIGERIAN sports minister!
Hate is what NIGERIANS exhibited when we came to abuja! Can u answer these questions
What happens to GHANA MUST GO prior to the qualifiers
So Nigerians didn’t called for a spiritual fortifications before the qualifiers? If so why did Nigerians asked to offered PRAYERS to the team? Is prayers isn’t a spiritual fortifications or u only see JUJU as spiritual fortifications?
If u honestly believed in juju in the 21st century, then am sorry for u my bro!
So if football is just a GAME just as u said, why DID NIGERIAN FANS INVADED THE PITCH and brutalized everyone after the end of the game? A caf official even lost his life because of this and nothing has even come out of this! If football was just a game from NIGERIAN perspective, why didn’t the NIGERIAN fans took this as a game but brutalize everyone! Between Ghana and Nigeria, who acted ur advice
Bro, I think we wrote almost the same thing at the same time. Nigerians are depressed with the world cup approaching very fast…lol. Depression no good!
This Ghanaian team have something in them ooo. If anyone feels dem no fit do anything , then I pity that person. They just dismantled Switzerland by 2 nil even without partey playing.
They outplayed the Switzerland team in every department.
Thank you @ Seedorf for seeing the light…lol
That result was a false positive. Switzerland has been on a downward spiral since the qualifiers, losing all its last 5 games and only managing a draw with minnows and 107-FIFA-ranked Kosovo. If Ghana banks on that result to weigh their chances against Portugal, South Korea, and Uruguay, then I laugh in Ashanti.
And that match was as flat and boring as watching water boil. No spark, no excitement. But no surprises as after being walloped 3-0 by Brazil, Ghana has been picking soft targets Nicaragua and Switzerland to mask their weakness and the fact that they got to Qatar by fluke and are the lowest-ranked team in the tournament.
The other one says Nigerians are depressed. Big LOL. Baba, log on any social media platform to see how naturally buoyant and free-spirited Nigerians are. We know flukes happen and we know the whole world (including) was shocked about the match for a reason. The whole world knows you never can put Nigeria and Ghana in the same box – Never mates.
But thanks to a fake penalty against South Africa, a pure goalkeeper error (and fluke goal by Partey), and hard luck (Moses Simon could have scored in Kumasi, and in Nigeria, Osimhen and Balogun practically had the ball in the net). You only have one and half or 2 weeks to stay in Qatar.
Everything you have written is fluke. No sense at all. Can you be put in the same box as ghana when it comes to senior mens football? What does the statistics say? You are so full of yourselves as Nigerians that has always proved to be your undoing. Come and write rubbish here again…I’m waiting for you.
Hahahahaha. “Come and write rubbish here again…I’m waiting for you,” you mean as per you go beat me or as per you go write pass me? Hahahahahaha. My belle wan burst with laugh. And on my own plot of land kwa!? Hahahahaha.
Charlie, go and spend 2 weeks holiday max in Qatar and come back home to watch the World Cup proper with proper teams. We played Barzil 1-1, and same team walloped you 3- 0. Today, we’ll draw with Portugal again, and the same team will bury your head int he mud and rub your nose in the ground. So you’ll understand something. We draw with them. They beat you. The same senior men’s team. Who’s stronger? But we know flukes happen. That’s why Italy is not at the World Cup.
Lol
@ Kel, how market? 4-0! Lol. This be team?!
@Yaw,It’s normal for countries to be optimistic before a game from ordinary citizens to sports administrators, politicians,everyone talks tough about a game it’s part of the build up,our sports minister included.After the games one team wins the bragging rights.
It will always be either Ghana or Nigeria one team must come out tops,but it was Ghana that nicked it fair play.
Of course we’re depressed who wouldn’t.
Enjoy your victory against Switzerland you deserve it.
You put your house in order,your football authorities took the right decisions got able coaches to lead your redemption after a poor nations cup,rightly so,the results is there for everyone to see congratulations..We shouldn’t be at the world cup because our leader took some bizarre decision which is still haunting us today.We are a divided country with clueless and corrupt leaders.
Congratulations @Yaw congratulations Ghana!
My guy @Greenturf, you have said it all. Pls let me enjoy my bragging right. Thank you…lol. If you can send me your address I will mail a Ghana shirt to you. You are officially a black star!
The Bankus are capable of beating any team, EXCEPT COMOROS.
COMO will always beat the SH@!7 out of them.
But first, let them try and put something in there trophy cabinet. 4O YEARS IS TOO LONG A TIME FOR A TROPHY CABINET TO BE EMPTY. Even teacup is ok to start with.
