Asante Kotoko head coach, Prosper Ogum, has called on Ghanaians to unite behind the Black Stars as they prepare for a crucial 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Chad.
In a heartfelt appeal, Ogum emphasized the significance of national support, reminding Ghanaians that the Black Stars symbolize the nation’s hopes and pride.
Every country has one national team, and for us, it is the Black Stars. I want to take this opportunity to urge all Ghanaians to rally behind the team, he said in an interview with the club’s media team.
Currently, Ghana sits second in Group I with nine points, trailing leaders Madagascar by just one point. However, Madagascar has played an extra match, presenting the Black Stars with an opportunity to take the lead.
As they prepare to face Chad today, March 21, at the Accra Sports Stadium, a victory would strengthen their position ahead of a crucial away clash against Madagascar on March 24 in Morocco.
These two fixtures are vital for Ghana’s World Cup qualification hopes. A win against Chad could serve as a morale booster, especially as the team looks to bounce back from recent setbacks.
Ghana’s failure to qualify for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, finishing bottom of their group, has left fans frustrated.
A win today would restore hope and reignite belief in the Black Stars’ ability to secure a spot in the 2026 World Cup.
