This is the only way Ghana can qualify

Black Stars can qualify for the 2018 World Cup if this happens over the weekend

In this case Ghana would have to win their next two FIFA World Cup qualification games against Uganda and Egypt.

This starts on Saturday 7th October in Kampala against the Cranes of Uganda and the Black Stars need all the three points.

Egypt reclaimed the group E top spot of the 2018 FIFA World Cup, following a 1-0 victory over Uganda in Alexandria.

As it stands now Egypt are in total control of the group, because they just have to win their next fixture against Congo at home and they would qualify for their first Mundial, since 1990.

Ghanaian soccer loving fans would want to enjoy the great feel they had in the three previous FIFA World Cups, so they will as usual pick their calculators and start the addition and subtraction.

This is how the table will look like if Ghana beat Congo, while Congo draw against Egypt in Alexandria over the weekends

Ghana will host Egypt, whereas Uganda will travel to Congo. An emphatic win like  3-0 for the Black Stars will send them to the top of the group via better head to head, since they lost 0-2 against the Pharaohs in the first round and will eventually book a place in Russia ahead of Egypt.
