Official Black Stars training will take place in Luanda.
On Thursday, November 14, 2024, the Black Stars of Ghana will officially train at the Estádio 11 de Novembro in Luanda in preparation for their pivotal 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier versus Angola.
The meeting is scheduled to begin at 8:00 p.m. local time.
After three successful training sessions in Accra, the Black Stars arrived in Luanda on Wednesday night as they get ready for a game they must win to maintain their prospects of qualifying. With just two points from four games, Ghana is currently in third place in Group F, behind Sudan and Angola.
So far in the qualifications, Angola has a perfect record and leads the group with 12 points. They are five points ahead of Sudan, who are in second place, and ten points ahead of Ghana. Ghana needs to win on Friday night in order to have any chance of making it to the 2025 tournament.
With the second leg of the qualifier against Niger also approaching, the Black Stars will be looking to earn a crucial three points in Luanda. Ghana’s chances of qualifying depend on both their own performance and Sudan’s performance in their remaining games.
Coach Otto Addo’s men are determined to put in a strong performance in the penultimate qualifier as they hope to earn a place in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, which will be hosted by Morocco.
