Former Asante Kotoko head coach Maxwell Konadu is highly optimistic Black Stars can pull up a surprise at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
Black Stars, who are the lowest-ranked team at the tournament have been drawn in Group H alongside Portugal, South Korea and Uruguay.
Ghana will take on Portugal in their first game on November 24 before playing South Korea and Uruguay on November 28 and December 2 respectively.
This is will Ghana’s fourth appearance at the World Cup.
“I’m very hopeful that the Black Stars can surprise any team including Portugal,” Maxwell Konadu said.
“We must also be wary that our team is a new team as compared to Portugal who has been together for a longer period.”
The 2022 FIFA World Cup takes place between November 20 and December 18, 2022.
Only three sides from the continent have ever progressed to the quarter-finals; Cameroon in 1990, Senegal in 2002, and Ghana in 2010.
Ghana will be hoping to progress from the group stage at this year’s tournament.
