Stephen Appiah Confident Ghana Will Celebrate World Cup Qualification in Style on Sunday

Vice Chairman of the Black Stars Management Committee, Stephen Appiah, has expressed unwavering confidence that Ghanaians will have every reason to celebrate on Sunday, as the national team looks to seal qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup in front of home fans.

Ghana took a giant step toward securing their spot at next year’s global tournament—set to be hosted in the USA, Mexico, and Canada—after a commanding victory over the Central African Republic on Wednesday evening.

The win lifted the Black Stars to the top of Group I, three points ahead of Madagascar, leaving them needing just a single point from their final qualifier against Comoros to officially confirm their place at the World Cup.

Speaking after the triumph, the former Black Stars captain said he is confident the team will finish the job in style.

> “They have done well, and I know that on Sunday, in front of Ghanaians, we are going to celebrate together. That would be the beauty of qualifying for the World Cup,” Appiah said.

“We will play our last game at home, we will beat Comoros, and everybody will be happy.”

The decisive clash will take place at the Accra Sports Stadium, where fans are expected to turn up in large numbers to cheer Otto Addo’s men toward another memorable qualification.
