World Cup 2022: We will do more for Ghanaians - Daniel Amartey assures after Ghana exit

Published on: 06 December 2022

Ghana defender Daniel Amartey has promised the Black Stars will do more for Ghanaians in subsequent tournaments after suffering early exit from the World Cup in Qatar.

The Black Stars were eliminated after the first round of the tournament following a 2-0 defeat to Uruguay.

After defeating South Korea in their second group game, the Black Stars needed a draw or win against Uruguay to advance to the last 16 stage.

But the team failed to negotiate for points against their ‘enemies’ Uruguay.

Ghana made a strong start to the game, but fell apart after captain Andre Ayew missed a penalty in the 21st minute, a repeat of what happened in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

“I want to thank Ghanaians for their support, I know they are happy but I promise we will do more for them in subsequent tournaments. We are grateful to them for the support, God bless them” he said.

The Black Stars will now shift attention to the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers set to begin in earnest.

The four-time African champions sit top of Group D with four points from the first two games of the qualifiers.
