It a great feeling to be back at the World Cup – Andre Ayew

-

Ghana skipper, Andre Ayew, says they have moved on from the disappointment they suffered in 2018 after failing to qualify for the World Cup.

The West African country, after playing in 2006, 2010, and 2014 in Germany, South Africa, and Brazil respectively, were hoping to return to the Mundial for the fourth time.

Ghana failed to qualify from their group where they played against Egypt, Congo, and Uganda.

The Black Stars finished 3rd with seven points after six matches during the qualifiers.

However, Otto Addo has masterminded Ghana’s return to the world stage after securing qualification against Nigeria after a two-legged tie.

The Al Sadd forward, speaking in an interview, reiterated that the entire team feel happy after returning to the World Cup in Qatar.

According to him, they are focused and are not bothered about failing to qualify for the tournament hosted in Russia.
