It was a night of total control and clinical finishing as Ghana turned on the style in front of a packed crowd, with goals coming from five different players.

Mohammed Salisu opened the scoring midway through the first half, heading home from a perfectly delivered Mohammed Kudus corner. Thomas Partey doubled the lead shortly after the break with a composed finish from the edge of the box.

The floodgates opened in the final half hour — Alexander Djiku, Jordan Ayew, and Kamal Deen Sulemana each added their names to the scoresheet to complete the rout.

Coach Otto Addo’s side looked sharp and confident, combining quick passing, disciplined defending, and intelligent movement across the pitch. The result reflected a team beginning to find its rhythm at just the right time.

“We played with intent and hunger,” Addo said after the match. “The players understood the assignment — keep the ball, stay patient, and finish our chances.”

What Comes Next

The win keeps Ghana firmly on course for 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification, sitting at the top of Group I with one game to go.

The Black Stars will wrap up their campaign on Sunday, October 12, when they host Comoros at the Accra Sports Stadium. A draw could be enough to confirm qualification, but the team insists they want nothing less than another victory to finish the job in style.

Fans will expect the same energy and attacking flair that powered last night’s performance — a statement win that reignites belief in Ghana’s path back to the world stage.
