As the Black Stars gear up for their crucial World Cup qualification match against Chad on Friday, March 21, 2025, Sports and Recreation Minister Kofi Adams has stressed the importance of instilling a winning mentality within the team. Addressing Parliament on March 19, Adams outlined the strategies the technical team is employing to ensure the players are mentally prepared and motivated for the upcoming fixtures.

With the 2026 World Cup qualification at stake, the Black Stars will be looking to secure a vital win against Chad and begin their journey toward securing a spot in the global tournament.
