Black Stars forward Antoine Semenyo has expressed the team’s readiness and determination to secure two wins in the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Mali and the Central African Republic.

In a post-training interview at the University of Ghana Stadium in Legon, Semenyo asserted, “We are ready to take the challenge, we are ready to get two wins. I think we got a good team. We just need to win at the end of the day so we are going to train hard this week and win the first game and hopefully the second.”

The Black Stars are keen to return to their winning ways following a inconsistent start in Group I of the World Cup qualifiers, where they currently hold fourth position. They commenced their campaign with a 1-0 triumph over Madagascar in Kumasi, but subsequently faced a 1-0 defeat against Comoros in Moroni.

The first of the two crucial qualifiers for Ghana is scheduled against Mali on Thursday, June 6, 2024, at Stade 26 Mars in Bamako, starting at 19:00. This will be followed by a match against the Central African Republic at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Monday, June 10, 2024.

Securing victories in these games is pivotal for the Black Stars to enhance their prospects of qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which is set to be jointly hosted by the USA, Canada, and Mexico.
