I've got so much confidence in Black Stars ahead of World Cup - John Paintsil

Published on: 10 November 2022

Former Fulham defender John Paintsil has disclosed he has high hopes for the Black Stars ahead of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.

The global showpiece will kick off on November 20 with hosts Qatar taking on Ecuador in a Group A opener

Black Stars have been drawn in Group H alongside Portugal, South Korea and Uruguay.  Ghana will take on Portugal in their first game on November 24 before playing South Korea and Uruguay on November 28 and December 2 respectively.

"My expectation is high. I have got so much confidence in this team especially if you look at the technical team. They are experienced enough to know how to deal with a lot of situations," Paintsil told TV3.

"Their experience will reflect in the players and then the two games they played against Nigeria tell me that the sky is the limit for the Black Stars. Going into Qatar, we have great players.

"It’s a matter of playing more games together before the World Cup and we’ll be able to have a team. I believe the technical men will turn things around going forward."
