Vice Chairman of the Black Stars Management Committee, Stephen Appiah, is confident that Ghana is on the verge of securing a spot at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, set to be hosted in the USA, Canada, and Mexico.
The Black Stars solidified their lead in Group E with a dominant 3-0 victory over Madagascar on Monday night at the Al Hoceima Grand Stadium in Morocco.
This win follows their emphatic 5-0 triumph against Chad last week at the Accra Sports Stadium.
Reflecting on the team’s performance, Appiah—who captained Ghana to its first-ever World Cup appearance in 2006—expressed optimism about their qualification chances.
“With the win yesterday, yes, we are almost there. Because when you look at the points, the matches ahead, and the performance our boys have shown, yes, we are almost there,” he said.
Ghana currently sits on 15 points and will face Chad and Mali in the next round of qualifiers in June as they push for their fifth World Cup appearance.
