Ghana FA rallies support for Black Stars ahead of Angola showdown

Communication Director of the Ghana Football Association, Henry Asante Twum is advocating for a massive support for the Black Stars ahead of their opening 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Angola.

The Black Stars is set to kick off their campaign with a home match against Angola on Thursday, September 5, at 16:00 GMT. Following this, the team will travel to Berkane, Morocco for their second Group F game against Niger on September 9.

Ghana commenced preparation for the two crucial games on Monday at the Accra Sports and have since arrived in Kumasi to finalize preparations.

“Ghanaians have been supportive over the years and we don’t think it will change this time. The players always discuss Ghanaians support for the Black Stars whenever they are in camp and they are not taking it for granted. We appreciate that support. We will plead with them troop to the stadium in their numbers to cheer the team up so we can start the qualifiers on a good note” he said in an interview.

Leicester City forward Jordan Ayew and Auxerre’s midfielder Elisha Owusu are the only players yet to report to Black Stars camp.

The Black Stars will wrap up preparation for the much-anticipated game at the Baba Yara Stadium on Wednesday evening.
