Ghana’s Senior National Team, the Black Stars opened their campaign in the 2022 Qatar World Cup Qualifier with a 1 nil victory against Ethiopia at the Cape Coast Sports Stadium.

Mubarak Wakaso  got the only goal for the Stars in the 35th minute.

The goal was the highlight of the first half as the two teams headed back into the locker room with Ghana having a slim lead.

Back from recess, Ethiopia took control of the game but failed to create any scoring opportunity.

Second half substitute Yaw Yeboah pulled a great save from substitute goalkeeper Fasil Gebremichael in the 73rd minute following a long drive by Yaw Yeboah and a follow-up by skipper Andre Ayew.

The exchanges from both ends failed to yield results as the game came to an end with Ghana picking the three points.

The Black Stars will face South Africa in Group G in their 2nd Round of matches on Monday 6th September, 2021.
