Ghana Football Association Executive Council member, Dr. Randy Abbey has hailed the Black Stars second half approach in win over Madagascar in the opening 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
The Black Stars cruised to a 1-0 win at the Baba Yara Stadium on Friday as they begin the qualifying campaign on a winning note.
Inaki Williams, who plays for Athletic Club, secured a late victory for the Black Stars, ending an 11-game goal drought for Ghana. The win marked a crucial moment for Williams, who had faced discussions about his goal-scoring form.
Speaking to Citi Sports after the game, Randy Abbey, also the President of Heart of Lions hailed the Black Stars second half performance against Madagascar.
“It can be better. We can only hope that we get better. We need to play much better than we were playing. We need to get the results in a more tidier way. I like the second half response, obviously, it’s a technical team that seen what went wrong in the first half and obviously realized what the issues were and did something about it and you can see that the Ashimeru change did a lot to how the team played and I’m happy about that” he said.
The Black Stars will aim to build on their opening win and secure another positive result against Comoros as they continue their journey in the World Cup qualifiers.
