2022 WC: Black Stars will play in the final – GFA veep
Vice President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Mark Addo, believes that the Black Stars will reach the finals of the 2022 World Cup.
The West African country will be making its fourth appearance in the Mundial in Qatar later this month.
Ghana’s best performance in the history of the biggest football tournament came in 2010 in South Africa.
The four-time African champions became the third African side to play in the quarterfinal of the global showpiece.
After securing qualification at the expense of Nigeria in March, Ghana has been paired with Portugal, South Korea, and Uruguay.
However, Mr Addo is optimistic the Black Stars will reach the finals of the Mundial.
“We plan to go as far as the final hopefully,” he told Citi Sports.
