2027 AFCONQ: Support the players available or stay home – Carlos Queiroz to fans ahead of The Gambia game
Black Stars head coach Carlos Queiroz has called on Ghana supporters to rally behind the players available for Tuesday’s crucial 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against The Gambia, insisting there is little value in dwelling on those missing through injury.

Carlos Queiroz, the head coach of the Ghana national football team, is urging fans to support the players who are available for the upcoming 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against The Gambia. Queiroz emphasized that there is no value in criticizing the absent stars who are injured. The Ghanaian team returns to the Accra Sports Stadium under pressure following their opening Group C match, which ended in a 2-0 defeat to Côte d'Ivoire last Thursday.
This setback makes a positive showing against The Gambia even more crucial as the four-time African champions aim to secure their first points of the qualifying campaign. Several senior players, such as Mohammed Kudus, Antoine Semenyo, and Nathaniel Adjei, are unavailable, leading Queiroz to bring in replacements for his first competitive home match since resuming his second tenure as Black Stars coach.
Queiroz believes that a strong atmosphere in Accra can aid his team in recovering from the disappointment in Bouaké and reinvigorate their hopes of qualifying for the 2027 AFCON tournament following their absence in the 2025 finals in Morocco.
