2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers: Ghana Black Stars under pressure

Ghana’s Black Stars are under pressure to win their back-to-back 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Sudan in October.

Winning both qualifiers against Kwasi Appiah’s team is crucial for Ghana for several reasons.

The Black Stars currently sit third in qualifying Group F, with only one point from two matches.

This position places significant pressure on the Black Stars to secure maximum points against Sudan to improve their chances of qualifying for the tournament, which is scheduled to be held in Morocco.

A win in both matches would not only boost their points tally but also enhance team morale as they strive to recover from a shaky start.

The first leg of the qualifiers will be hosted in Ghana at a yet-to-be-announced venue on Friday, October 11.

Support from local fans can significantly influence the team’s performance, making it essential for Ghana to capitalize on this opportunity after it was announced that the four-time African champions could play their home game outside the country.

Winning at home is critical to building momentum going into the away match just three days later.
