Ghana return to training for the next challenge

The next challenge at the World Cup is the most important for Ghana as Kwesi Appiah's side move on from their opening defeat in Group G.

Ghana suffered a 2-1 loss to the United States on Monday night, a result which left them third on the log and three points adrift Germany, their next opponents.

Fortaleza’s Estadio Castelao will host the eagerly awaited clash on Saturday as the Black Stars attempt to overcome their setback to put themselves in contention for a second round place.

"It’s not going to be easy to qualify from the group, but we’ll give everything to do just that," Appiah said.

And as Appiah's men prepare to return to training in Maceio on Tuesday following defeat to U.S.A the day before, the emphasis is no more on the past rather, reorganizing for the German duel.

"We’re going to have to play well against Germany and I know we’ll give them a good game."

Ghana need positive result from their remaining group games to advance.
