I’ve done my part ahead of Black Stars’ Somalia double-header – Kofi Adams
by Ayeh Offei-Akoto · MyNewsGh.comSports and Recreation Minister Kofi Adams says he has fulfilled his responsibilities ahead of Ghana’s crucial 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifying double-header against Somalia.
The Black Stars will take on Somalia on November 12 and 16 in Matchdays 3 and 4 of the qualifiers, with both encounters scheduled to be played at the Essipong Sports Stadium in Sekondi.
Speaking to Channel One Sports, Adams expressed confidence in the technical team and management’s ability to get the players ready for the two matches, stressing that his role as Minister was to provide the necessary support.
“We have been engaging and I believe that I like the psychology of the individual players. I believe that the technical team and the management should be able to put them in the collective spirit for the game. That is their work,” he said.
“As Minister, I’ve done what I’m supposed to do. I want to leave the rest for the technical people to also perform their responsibility,” the Buem MP added.
Ghana, who missed out on qualification for the 2025 AFCON in Morocco, are yet to earn a point in Group C of the 2027 qualifiers.
The Black Stars will therefore be under pressure to collect maximum points from the two meetings with Somalia to revive their qualification hopes and keep their chances of reaching the tournament alive.
