Ghana National Team in FIFA World Cup
The esteemed Ghana National Football team is the most prosperous football squad in Africa for the FIFA World Cup. The squad does not yet have a profile or a title, but they do have the highest and finest stats among the other African nations. For the first time, they qualified for the World Cup in 2006.
However, they successfully qualified for the competition three times in a row after that. They established their collective strength in 2010 by being the third African team to go to the World Cup quarterfinals. The team has earned a spot in the 2022 FIFA World Cup, which will begin on November 20 and last through December 18.
The team should be quite proud that they have made it to the final 32 teams competing in the World Cup, which is held just once every four years. With an average age of 23 years and 352 days, Ghana is a squad that supports youthful talent and holds the record for fielding the youngest team for the World Cup in 2006.
The quarterfinal match between Ghana and Uruguay at the 2010 FIFA World Cup will go down as one of the most memorable moments for Ghana fans because of a mistake by Luis Suarez that forced Ghana to concede defeat to an almost certain victory.
Upcoming matches for Ghana at FIFA World Cup 2022
The squad spent the year in the seventh-place spot in the rankings. They will play Portugal in their opening game of the Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup, which is scheduled on November 24. On November 17, they will compete in a friendly game in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, against Switzerland.
This year, they must win four games to get to the quarterfinals during the group stage. The matches are scheduled for 17 November, 24 November, 28 November, and 2 December, respectively, against Switzerland, Portugal, South Korea, and Uruguay. Fans eagerly anticipate the games.
Ghana in the history
Despite being the most successful team in Africa and without a successful World Cup history, the team continues to hold numerous titles in continental competitions. The team finished second five times and won the African Cup of Nations four times in 1963, 1965, 1978, and 1982.
Jordan Ayew is one of the team’s most well-liked players. They are adored by football fans everywhere and given the nickname “Black stars” in honour of the black star in the Ghanaian flag. This year, everyone waits with bated breath in hopes that some African side would take the trophy.
