2022 World Cup: I think we will do well - Laryea Kingston rates Black Stars chances

Published on: 09 November 2022

Former Ghana winger, Laryea Kingston believes the Black Stars will put up a good performance at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

The four-time African champions have made a return to the Mundial after missing out on the last edition in Russia in 2018.

The Black Stars have come under criticism following their recent poor performance.

However, Laryea believes the technical team led by Otto Addo will be able to lead the side to perform.

“I am however very optimistic about a good outing at the World Cup," he told GNA Sports. "We have a solid technical team because they work in an elite environment, so they know what is at stake.

“Most of the technical team members have been to the World Cup, so they know what is at stake. I know Ghanaians are not too confident, but they should think back at what happened in the 2006 World Cup. We were out during the group stages at the 2006 AFCON, but when we went to the World Cup, we saw what Ghana did.

“So, for me, I think we will go there and do well,” he said.

Ghana has been housed in Group H alongside Portugal, South Korea, and Uruguay.

The Black Stars will take on Switzerland in a friendly game on November 17 before flying to Doha on November 19.
