Fred Pappoe backs Ghana Otto Addo to do well at 2022 World Cup

Published on: 13 October 2022

Former Ghana Football Association Executive Council member Fred Pappoe has urged coach Otto Addo to make the selection ahead of the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

Ghana will face Portugal, Uruguay, and South Korea in Group H of the global showpiece which takes place between November 21 and December 18, 2022.

Black Stars, who make a return to the tournament after missing out on the 2018 edition in Russia take on Portugal in their first game in Group H before facing South Korea and Uruguay in a repeat of the 2010 World Cup quarter-final.

"It’s possible and I’m very hopeful that we can do well, and the coaches should be able to identify areas, where they think, must be strengthened, it could be new call-ups or getting other friendly games to correct the mistakes they have identified. It is not going to be easy, it takes hard work," Fred Pappoe told Akoma FM.

"Looking at the precious groups that we progress with i.e 2006 and 2010, surely we can repeat the same performance this time by having the right focus, atmosphere, and support from all Ghanaians,  I believe we can progress."

Ghana will take on Switzerland in another preparatory game on November 17, seven days before their opening game at the 2022 FIFA World Cup against Portugal.
