According to Black Stars management committee member Samuel Osei Kuffour, the Super Eagles of Nigeria look to be superior on paper to the Black Stars of Ghana.
Despite the presence of high-profile players in Nigeria’s squad , Sammy Kuffour , the former Black Stars star , believes Ghana still has what it takes to defeat their opponents.
According to Osei Kuffour, who is optimistic about Ghana’s chances of qualifying for the World Cup in Qatar, Ghana would defeat Nigeria with the right attitude and determination to win.
“On paper, they (Nigeria) look much better than us but with Nigeria versus Ghana games, names do not matter. It is about the mentality and the desire to win. It is like Hearts vs Kotoko,” the ex-Bayern Munich player told a Kumasi-based FM station.
On Tuesday, March 22, 2022, coach Otto Addo named Ghana’s 27-man roster for the FIFA World Cup playoffs in 2022.
Ghana will host Nigeria in the first leg at the Baba Yara Sports stadium on Friday, March 25, 2022, before heading to Abuja for the second game on Tuesday, March 29, 2022.
