AFCON 2027Q: There’s no problem with the Black Stars – Carlos Queiroz
The senior national team have just one win from their last 11 games and have failed to convince Ghanaians after back-to-back Africa Cup of Nations group stage exits and failing to qualify for the last edition.
Carlos Queiroz, the head coach of the Black Stars, maintains that there are no problems within the national team despite their recent string of poor results. The senior national team has secured only one win in their last 11 games, failing to make an impact after two consecutive Africa Cup of Nations group stage exits and missing out on qualification for the previous tournament.
Queiroz, who took the reins before the 2026 World Cup, has managed a mere one win from six games, including a defeat in the opening match of the 2027 AFCON qualifiers against Côte d'Ivoire.
Addressing the press ahead of the Black Stars' home game against Gambia, the Portuguese coach emphasized that the national team is not a problem. Queiroz acknowledged that the team is facing a couple of challenges, but reassured that Black Stars has never been an issue and will not be one in the future. "Black Stars are facing a couple of challenges, a couple of problems, but Black Stars is not a problem," Queiroz stated, highlighting the importance of solving the issues at hand.
"Yes, we are facing some challenges; that is the challenge we have in front of us, but Black Stars was never a problem, Black Stars is not a problem, and Black Stars will never be a problem in the future." Ghana is set to host Gambia at the Accra Sports Stadium, aiming to secure their first points of the AFCON qualifying series.
