We Are Confident Black Stars Will Set Up A Better Performance In The Next AFCON

Head of Public Relations and Strategy at the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Neil Armstrong-Mortagbe says he is profoundly hopeful about the Black Stars possibilities in the following year’s Africa Cup of Countries (AFCON) in Morocco.

Recent AFCON tournaments have been difficult for the senior national team, which has lost early to Cameroon and Ivory Coast in the group stage.

However, as they begin their campaign in September, the Black Stars are prepared to perform well. The Black Stars who are in Group F, will start their matches against Angola and Niger.

In a recent interview with ChannelOne television, Neil Armstrong-Mortagbe expressed confidence in the team’s true capacity for development, stressing on their recent success in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers as a positive sign.

He said the last two AFCONs didn’t live up to expectations, but a good World Cup performance in 2022 gives them hope for better results, especially when compared to Ghana’s performance at the last AFCON.

Black Stars Team Will Need Time To Adjust Playing With One Another – Otto Addo

He commended Otto Addo, who took over after the 2023 AFCON, for executing a brilliant plan that is turning out well for the team.

Neil Armstrong-Mortagbe claims that the Black Stars team has now grown to a level where it should be able to compete in the next year’s World Cup qualifiers.

On September 5, Ghana will host Angola at the Baba Yara Stadium, and on September 9, the team will travel to Berkane to play Niger.
