Coach Otto Addo unperturbed by Black Stars form ahead of World Cup

Otto Addo, the coach of Ghana, is unconcerned with the Black Stars’ performance before the World Cup in Qatar.

The Black Stars are participating in the world championship after being absent in Russia in 2018.

Otto Addo has led the national team to the 2022 World Cup, although in his eight games since taking over, he has only won two of them. His first two games were against Nigeria.

Because both contests were tied, Ghana was guaranteed a spot in the tournament in Qatar based on away goals.

Since then, Ghana have only beaten Madagascar once, a 3-0 victory in Cape Coast in a 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier, and Tuesday’s 1-0 victory over Nicaragua.

The run has included defeats to Japan (4-1) and Brazil (3-0), as well as draws with the Central African Republic (1-1) and Chile (0-0).

“We are using these matches to try a lot of things, not only on the players but also for my side on systems, so we have to find that together. This is very important for us as a team.

“We have new players in each position we need to integrate and a whole a lot of things and we also want to use these games for everyone to show themselves at the training and also in the games and I am not worried.

“We have to take the right conclusions out of every match and prepare ourselves for the World Cup.”
