Former Ghana forward Dan Owusu worried about Black Stars form ahead of World Cup

Published on: 30 September 2022

Former Ghana international Dan Owusu has expressed worry about the form of the Black Stars ahead of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Ghana is returning to the global showpiece after missing out in Russia 2018.

Prior to the tournament in the Asian country, the West African powerhouse has engaged in two international friendlies against Brazil and Nicaragua during the break.

Ghana lost 3-0 to Brazil and recovered to beat Nicaragua 1-0 on Tuesday in Spain through a strike from Abdul Fatawu Issahaku.

In an interview with Koforidua-based Bryt FM, the former Ghana forward expressed displeasure about the performance of the team ahead of the mundial.

“Our performance is very worrisome at the moment. Our game play is very abysmal and it’s time we improve because the world up is just few months away”

“Nicaragua isn’t a strong country that we should suffer to beat. Our game against Nicaragua was a very low-profile match. That match wasn’t needed for a country preparing for World Cup”

“Many of players in the current Black Stars have good techniques individually, unfortunately, there is no team work. We still don’t have good potent goal scorers. I seriously don’t have confidence in the current strikers we have. But I hope as time goes on our strikers build confidence when they get in front of goal,” he said.
