Black Stars arrive Abuja ahead of Tuesday’s clash with Super Eagles
On Monday afternoon, the Black Stars of Ghana arrived in Abuja for the return leg of the 2022 FIFA World Cup playoff against the Super Eagles of Nigeria.
The Ghanaian team arrived at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja around 1:35 p.m.
The team is expected to train a few hours later in the day at the Moshood Abiola National Stadium for the make-or-mar match slated for the same venue on Tuesday.
The Black Stars are eyeing a Qatar 2022 World Cup ticket slated for November 21 to December 18.
They had secured a 0-0 draw with the Super Eagles in the fixture’s opening leg on Friday in Kumasi and now need a score draw or an outright win to succeed.
