The Black Stars will be hosted today (Tuesday) at 2:30pm in Brazzaville on match day four of the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
The playing body, technical team and the GFA will undergo bashing and might shake-ups.
No 2018 FIFA World Cup
An end to Ghana’s ambition of a place in the 2018 FIFA World in Russia will be confirmed today (Tuesday), if the Black Stars are beaten by their Congolese counterparts. In that case they should be hoping that the evening tie between Egypt and Uganda should produce no winner in order to give Ghana a very slim chance mathematically.
Pressure will mount on Kwesi Appiah
The Black Stars coach’s tactics was criticized by several Ghanaians after Ghana were held to a 1-1 draw against Congo in Kumasi. A section of the media still believe Kwesi Appiah didn’t get the job on merit and Ghana can’t do anything better under his watch than his first stint with the team, which has been the woes of most coaches when they return to their former sides.
The Ghana Football Association will be in hot waters
The major achievement for the Kwesi Nyantakyi’s led Black Stars has been the FIFA World Cup- Ghana have qualified for three consecutive Mundials under his watch. Despite, the unprecedented feat, achieved by the Nyantakyi led GFA, the association has come under severe criticisms due to the dwindling fortunes of the Ghana Premier League. The major defence for the GFA is that Ghana have booked a place in three consecutive FIFA World Cups, but they will be defenseless, if the 2018 World Cup, slipped through their hands
Call for Gyan’s resignation
The Black Stars skipper has been the savior of the team on countless of occasion. However, after he failed to glitter against Congo in Kumasi, the call for his resignation started emerging and it would be intensified should the Black Stars falter against Congo to put the team in danger of not qualifying for the World Cup. Some people believe he has paid his dues to Black Stars at age 31 and it is about time he paved way for the young ones.
Andre Ayew and Jordan Ayew might lose starting place
The Ayew brother are being seen as liabilities than assets to the Black Stars by most fans at the mome. There has been several calls from football loving fans for them to start from the bench. If Black Stars lose against Congo in Brazzaville on Tuesday there is going to be a public outcry for the team to be overhauled and the Ayew brothers will be affected because their impact in the team is totally missing and they are seen as one of the problems facing the Black Stars
