The Black Stars of Ghana are set to kick off their preparations for the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier against Angola with an intense training session at the Accra Sports Stadium on Monday, September 2, 2024. This highly anticipated training marks the beginning of what promises to be a crucial journey for the national team as they aim to secure a spot in the next AFCON tournament.
Coach Otto Addo is leaving no stone unturned, with all players expected to report to the Accra camp on Monday. The training will be the team’s first major gathering ahead of their decisive Group F encounters. The tactical drills and fitness routines planned for this session will lay the groundwork for the match against Angola, a fixture that could set the tone for Ghana’s qualification campaign.
The stakes are high as this will be a double-header, with the Black Stars also scheduled to face Niger in their second Group F game. The team will travel to Kumasi on Tuesday, where they will undergo two more training sessions at the iconic Baba Yara Sports Stadium before their clash with Angola on Thursday, September 5, 2024.
This AFCON qualifier is more than just a match; it’s a statement. After falling short in recent tournaments, the Black Stars are eager to reignite their dominance on the continent. Their journey begins with these crucial games against Angola and Niger, and fans across Ghana are waiting with bated breath for the team to deliver.
After the Angola game in Kumasi, the Black Stars will waste no time in shifting focus to their next opponent, Niger. The team will fly to Berkane, Morocco, to face Niger on Monday, September 9, 2024. This match will be equally critical as Ghana looks to solidify their standing in Group F and maintain momentum on the road to qualification.
