Published on: 07 December 2022

The Professional Footballers Association of Ghana (PFAG) believes Black Stars will bounce back stronger after exiting the group stage of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

The four-time African champions were eliminated from the tournament on Friday after losing 2-0 to Uruguay.

Ghana finished bottom of Group H with three points after losing to Portugal and Uruguay, having beaten South Korea in between.

In a statement of support issued by the Association, the mother body of all professional footballers in the country, commended the entire playing body and technical bench for their heroic display on world football’s grandest global stage and encouraged the gallant warriors to use the experience gained at the World Cup to press on towards a brighter future for Ghana Football.

Black Stars began the tournament with a 3-2 loss to Portugal but came back to beat South Korea 3-2 before losing 2-0 to Uruguay.

Otto Addo will leave his post as Ghana coach at the end of December 2022.

The 47-year-old replaced Milovan Rajevac in February, initially as interim boss, and was given a deal until the end of December.
