2027 AFCONQ: The result against The Gambia does not make me a loser – Carlos Queiroz
Black Stars head coach Carlos Queiroz has defended his international record, insisting that Ghana’s 4-2 defeat by The Gambia does not make him a loser. Ghana surrendered a two-goal lead to suffer a dramatic defeat against the Scorpions in their second Group C match of the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers at the Accra […]
Carlos Queiroz, coach of the Ghana national football team, has dismissed criticism following Ghana's 4-2 loss to The Gambia in their second group match of the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. The Black Stars, who led 2-0 at halftime, saw The Gambia stage a dramatic second-half surge, scoring four goals to leave Ghana with no points from their opening two matches.
Despite the setback, Queiroz remains defiant, emphasizing his coaching record and denying any notion of resignation. The 73-year-old acknowledged the pressure mounting on him, but affirmed his commitment to the team, stating that if his departure would aid Ghana football, he would consider stepping down. The defeat has further complicated Ghana's qualification prospects, with the Black Stars now without a point after two matches.
They face a daunting task to turn their fortunes around as they prepare to face Somalia in a double-header at the Accra Sports Stadium in October.
