World Cup 2022: Asiedu Nketia wishes Black Stars well ahead of Portugal game

The General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia has sent goodwill message to the Black Stars ahead of their 2022 World Cup opener against Portugal on Thursday.

Black Stars will begin their campaign against Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal before taking on South Korea and Uruguay in the other Group H matches.

Black Stars, who are the lowest-ranked team at the tournament have been drawn in Group H alongside Portugal, South Korea and Uruguay.

“Let’s go Ghana! All the best of Luck!! Shine on Ghana!!!”, Asiedu Nketia said.

Ghana are making a record 4th World Cup appearance in Qatar having previously played in the 2006, 2010 and 2014 in Germany, South Africa and Brazil respectively.

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.

Black Stars exited the group stage at the 2014 edition in Brazil after a slow start to the tournament.
