Asamoah Gyan, a former captain of Ghana, has urged the Black Stars to play against Madagascar with zeal and heart.
Kickoff for tonight’s Matchday six of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers is set for 19:00 GMT, and the four-time African champions will face the Barea.
Gyan, Africa’s leading scorer at the FIFA World Cup with six goals, has pushed his teammates to go out for the win against the Malagasy team after the team’s thrilling 5-0 victory over Chad last Friday at the Accra Sports Stadium.
He also charged the team to ensure they don’t concede against their opponent.
“Let’s go one hundred per cent guys, I want Ghanaians to see you guys heckling and fighting and the result will come by itself, that’s all I want from you guys. We have great players, the talent and everything is there, that commitment, a bit, small push, we will get there,” Gyan said.
“Me and my colleagues, the technical team have confidence in you guys if not we won’t be here but the reason why we are here is just to push you just a bit to make sure you get there, that’s what we want.
“Let’s go for the kill, let’s go for the win, make sure we don’t concede if we don’t concede it’s one point, if we win it’s three points and we are there and then everybody can ease the pressure.” Asamoah Gyan said during an interaction with the players in camp,” he added.
After five matches played, Ghana are top of Group I with 12 points, two points ahead of Madagascar.
