Following their loss to Portugal, Black Stars head coach Otto Addo has stated that his team must defeat South Korea to have any chance of leaving the group.
In their opening match, the Black Stars fell to Portugal 3-2, while South Korea held Uruguay to a scoreless draw in the other Group H match.
To advance to the next round of the competition, Ghana will need to defeat South Korea.
“We have to win now and we are under pressure but then so are they,” Otto Addo said ahead of the game.
The players were exhorted by captain Andre Ayew to loosen up and take their chances against South Korea.
“We need to stay calm, relax and increase our performance. We need to try and score more and concede less,” the 32-year-old said.
On Monday, November 28, 2022, at 7:00 p.m., the game is slated to take place at the Education City Stadium (13:00 GMT).
Between November 20 and December 18, 2022, the FIFA World Cup will be held.
Only three African teams have ever advanced to the quarterfinals: Ghana (2010), Senegal (2002), and Cameroon (1990).
