Vice Chairman of the Black Stars Management Committee, Stephen Appiah, has commended the team for their impressive performance in the 5-0 victory against the Central African Republic (CAR) during the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
The match took place on Wednesday afternoon at the Stade d’Honneur de Meknès, featuring goals from Mohammed Salisu, Thomas Partey, Alexander Djiku, Jordan Ayew, and Kamaldeen Sulemana, resulting in a commanding win that brings Ghana closer to the World Cup.
In an interview, Appiah acknowledged that the significant scoreline surpassed expectations.
“I am extremely pleased. The players have made us proud, and we are eagerly anticipating Sunday,” stated Appiah, who captained the Black Stars in the 2006 and 2010 World Cups.
Reflecting on the team’s preparation, he remarked, “We are here because of the players. They have made us proud. Based on what I observed during the two training sessions, I was confident we would win, but I did not foresee a 5-0 result.”
Ghana currently leads Group I by three points, with Madagascar in second place, setting the stage for a crucial final match.
The four-time African champions are set to host Comoros on Sunday, October 12, at the Accra Sports Stadium, aiming to finish their 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign on a positive note.
Kick-off is scheduled for 19:00 GMT.
