Facing the Eagles of Mali at the Stade du 26 Mars in Bamako, the Black Stars of Ghana are determined to break their winless streak and secure a vital victory in the 2026 World Cup qualifier.
Ghana’s quest for their first win in 2024 adds pressure to the encounter, with the team enduring seven matches without triumph since their last success against Madagascar in November.
With a disappointing performance at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations and recent defeats to Nigeria and a draw against Uganda, Otto Addo’s squad faces a stern test against a resolute Mali side keen to maintain their winning momentum.
Mali, buoyed by recent victories, aims to capitalize on home advantage and exploit Ghana’s defensive vulnerabilities.
However, Ghana relies on experienced leaders like captain Jordan Ayew and Thomas Partey, alongside the attacking prowess of Mohammed Kudus, to challenge the Malian defense and turn their fortunes around.
In a gripping encounter, both teams are eager for three points: Ghana to end their drought, and Mali to extend their impressive streak, making today’s match a must-watch event.
