Black Stars Management Committee Chairman, Dr Randy Abbey, has lauded the playing body of the senior national team’s dedication following their successful qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Ghana secured their fifth World Cup appearance with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Comoros in their final group game at the Accra Sports Stadium, courtesy of a second-half strike from Mohammed Kudus.
In the wake of criticism surrounding the commitment of certain players, Dr. Abbey insisted that the squad displayed full dedication throughout the campaign. He highlighted that differences in club and national team performances do not reflect a lack of effort from the players.
“Every player has been eager to deliver. No player decided not to give us a bad performance. The performance at the club level is not the same as the national team,” he told Asempa FM.
“The game plan and tactics are always different from the national team. At the club side, they train more and play more together than the national team.
“We shouldn’t criticise that, but we can criticise the performance and not the commitment of the players because they were committed and ready to deliver,” he added.
Ghana will learn their opponents for the 2026 World Cup group stage when the draw takes place on December 5.
