Ghana football legend Mohammed Polo says the Black Stars must beat the Super Eagles convincingly in the first leg to stand any chance of qualifying to the Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup.
The Black Stars will host the Eagles in the first leg on March 25, 2022 at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium before traveling away for the reverse fixture on March 29 inside the Moshood Abiola Stadium, Abuja.
Polo believes the Black Stars can pick the ticket if they are able to replicate the 6-1 win against Egypt in Kumasi in the World Cup playoffs against Egypt in 2013.
“Ghana chances of qualifying for the World Cup is very slim but we are praying the team can win in the first leg to raise the morale before the second leg,” 1978 Afcon winner Polo told Bryt FM.
It is unfortunate, we don’t know what is happening in the national team. It is very worrying that the squad are not out until now, we have few days to play the game and we still don’t know the players to do the job.
“The only thing Otto Addo and other technical team members must do is to psych the players because it is not easy for us to beat Nigeria.
Even against South Africa, the team struggled, and it took [Andre] Ayew’s penalty for us to beat them.”
