GFA backs Black Stars to beat Zimbabwe in Cape Coast as Ghana eye World Cup qualifiers second victory
The Black Stars of Ghana have been backed to cruise into victory against Zimbabwe tomorrow at the Cape Coast Stadium as Milo’s side knee on getting their Word Cup final chances back on track.
Ghana opened their campaign with a 1-0 victory over Ethiopia before losing to South Africa at the FNB Stadium last month.
Ghana are still confident of qualifying to the next round of African qualifiers for Qatar 2022 as they welcome Zimbabwe to Cape Coast on Saturday afternoon.
Trailing leaders South Africa by a point, the Black Stars need to win to help their quest of returning to the Mundial after missing out during the previous edition.
The clash with Zimbabwe is the first for the recently appointed Milovan Rajevac; who is taking charge for a second time-having handled Ghana in 2010.
Speaking in an interview with Asempa FM, the Communications Director of the Ghana Football Association, Henry Asante Twum has expressed positivity about how the team’s training camp has gone.
“We are very positive with what we have seen and for me based on what I have witnessed in training from Tuesday, I’m sure that we are on course.
“At the end of the day, it is the results that we are looking for. Anytime the Coach engages the players he makes them aware that they’re representing one of the biggest football nations in the world,” he said.
In Asante Twum’s view, the team is well prepared to avoid a shocking scoreline like what befell Nigeria in their shocking home defeat to the Central Africa Republic.
“There are shocks in football like what happened to Nigeria. But those shocks, it come once in a while. On the pitch and off the pitch, what I have picked up and what I have seen gives me the encouragement and hope that we will translate that into performance on the field and get the result tomorrow” he added.
