Otto Addo claims Ghana are favourites ahead of Nicaragua game in pre-World Cup friendly

Published on: 27 September 2022

Ghana head coach Otto Addo says his side are favourites ahead of their pre-World Cup friendly against Nicaragua on Tuesday.

The Black Stars will be looking to bounce back to winning ways against the North American country after they were thrashed 3-0 by Brazil in Le Harve and with only two games to play before the finals.

Nicaragua are ranked 139th in the World but have seen an improvement in their team performance in recent time following a seven match unbeaten run that ended last Thursday after losing 2-1 to Suriname. This is will be first ever meeting between both sides in history.

"Like I said to have a lot of connections, it’s a different game, this game we are the favorites so it demands different things from us, coach Addo said at his pre-match press conference.

"We have trained; we talked about it in the last days and hopefully we can see a lot of, especially offensive patterns in that game."

The match will take place at Estadio Francisco Artes Carrasco in Lorca at 18:00 GMT.
