Ghana’s national futsal team has intensified preparations ahead of its crucial first-leg qualifier against Zambia in the CAF Futsal Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.

The Black Stars Futsal side trained rigorously on Sunday, February 1, 2026, as they fine-tune tactics for the showdown scheduled for Tuesday, February 3, 2026, at the University of Cape Coast Sports Hall.

The match is set to kick off at 4:00 p.m. and is expected to draw significant attention, with both nations eager to secure a spot at the 2026 continental tournament.

Tuesday’s encounter represents an important milestone for Ghana’s steadily developing futsal programme, with the team hoping to capitalize on home advantage and generate a positive result before the return leg.

Following the Cape Coast clash, Ghana will travel to Lusaka for the second leg, where the final outcome of the tie will be decided. The aggregate winner over the two matches will book a place at the 2026 CAF Futsal Africa Cup of Nations.

With the two-legged format leaving little room for error, both Ghana and Zambia are expected to approach the opening fixture with intensity, knowing that a strong performance could prove decisive ahead of the return match.
