Ghana deputy skipper Andre Ayew says they will not give up on qualifying for the 2018 World Cup.

Ghana take on Congo in a must win game at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi on Friday.

A win for the Black Stars and defeat to Egypt in their game against Uganda will open up the group.

Andre Ayew who will be making a third World Cup appearance should Ghana qualify says it will be a dream should that become a reality.

“I’ve been to two but we’re in a difficult spot at the moment,” he said. “We’re in a difficult spot, but hopefully we’re going to make it to the World Cup.

“It’s an important year for us and if we do it, we’ll turn something that was impossible into something possible, so our country would be on fire. We’re going to try to make it happen. We have the belief, we have a great squad and I think we can do it.

“I’d like to go to my third World Cup. It’s not every player who has the chance to go to even one World Cup, so if I have the opportunity to go to a third one, I need to do everything possible to make that happen, ” Ayew told West Ham official website.
