Ghana's Black Meteors U-23 squad and management have arrived in Libya for their CAF Africa Cup of Nations qualifying clash against the North African nation. Head coach Desmond Ofei and his players touched down at Benina International Airport on Sunday, November 8, 2026. The match against Libya is scheduled for Wednesday, November 11, at the Benghazi International Stadium, with a kick-off time of 7pm local time, which corresponds to 5pm in Ghana. The second leg of the tie will take place on Tuesday, November 17, at the Accra Sports Stadium.
A win in the two-legged series will see Ghana advance to the next qualifying round, where they will face either Equatorial Guinea or Niger, in their pursuit of a spot at the 2027 CAF U-23 Africa Cup of Nations. Ghana was granted a bye into the first round of the three-stage qualification series, which will ultimately feature seven teams alongside hosts Egypt for the eight-team tournament in 2027.
The campaign represents a chance to reignite Ghana's Olympic football ambitions after an extended absence from the men's football competition at the Games. Ghana last participated in Olympic men's football at the 2004 Athens Games, and qualifying for the 2027 tournament would mark a significant step towards ending that 23-year gap.
