Ghana will be entering the world cup 2022 series for the fourth time this year in Qatar. The Black Stars made their debut in the year 2006 when they played through the group stage and proceeded to the round of 16. Later in the 2010 FIFA world cup play, Ghana went through the Group of 16 and reached the quarter-finals where they came close to the last four.
Led by their team manager Otto Addo, Ghana is expected to better their previous results and break through to the semi-finals and even through to the finals. They are placed In group H. They will be going up against Portugal, South Korea, and Uruguay. With their prowess, Ghana is likely to break through the group stage and into the round of 16. They have some experienced and talented players on their team. With Otto Addo as their leader, here are the team position reviews and some of the players to watch out for.
Goalkeeper
Some keynote players like Ati Zigi will be playing the goalkeeper position in this year’s tournament. The Goalkeeper position of the Ghana team is very strong and promising. Assisted by veteran goalie Danlad and woollacott, the Ghana goalkeeper position is likely to be the strongest in the group.
With a strong goalkeeper position, there is a higher probability of the team going through the group stage to the round of 16.
Defense
Abbey-Ashie and Amartey are some names that will be playing in the defense of Ghana. A strong defense team has been set up behind the midfield. The gameplay of Ghana is likely to be more attacking as compared to the rest of the group. Ghana has a strong defense and if any team will manage to break through the defense, they will still encounter a skilled Goalkeeper making it hard to beat Ghana in the group stage.
Midfield
A good midfield leads to a better and action-packed match. This is what is likely to be witnessed when it comes to Ghana. They have a very subtle team and are likely to beat their opponents easily if they play a good standard ball game. Some names such as Addo E and Lomotey will be playing in the midfield of the team.
The formation that they will play with will also greatly affect the whole match outcome.
Forward
Afena-Gyan and Afritie are some of the keynote players likely to take up the forward role of the team by storm. The Ghanaian forward is also strong and its organization will determine the results cast on the board. They have a very skilled and talent-packed team as compared to many teams. The group members of Group H should be worried and on the lookout for these Ghana strikers and forwards as they are likely to break through their defense easily to put the ball behind the net.
Players to watch out for
When it comes to Ghana, almost all players are to watch out for. However, other players stand out from the rest of the group. Players such as 19 years Addo E are likely to catch the eyes of the world. These young talents are super talented and strength packed with good ball skills. Also, veteran players like Ayew A are likely to create moments in the overall game.
