The Chairman of the Black Stars management committee, Dr. Randy Abbey, has assured the public that the Black Stars will defeat Chad in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.

He acknowledged that Ghanaians have lost interest in the team due to their recent abysmal performances, particularly their failure to qualify for the 2025 African Cup of Nations (AFCON).

The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Ghana Cocoa Board (COCOBOD) expressed optimism that the Black Stars will convincingly beat Chad to enhance their chances of qualifying for the tournament.

Speaking in an interview with Accra-based Original FM, Dr. Abbey said that the Black Stars management committee have done their part to prepare the team for the crucial game.

"We, the [Black Stars] management committee, have confidence in the team, and we believe that we will win to regain the trust of Ghanaians," he said.

The Black Stars will face Chad on March 21, 2025, at the Accra Sports Stadium before facing Madagascar in an away fixture on March 24, 2025.

A win in both games will put Ghana in a better position to secure qualification for the 2026 World Cup to be hosted in Mexico, Canada and the United States of America.
