Ghana's interim coach, Kim Lars Bjorkegren, has acknowledged the difficulties ahead of the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations Qualifiers against Somalia. Bjorkegren took over as coach following Carlos Queiroz's resignation last month. During a press conference, he admitted that he has had less preparation time but is doing his best. Bjorkegren, who also coaches the Black Queens, has been observing players in Europe and has been in contact with the Ghanaian team via phone calls.
After two training sessions in Ghana, the team is set to play two matches against Somalia to have a chance at qualification. Currently, Ghana is at the bottom of Group C after losing their first two matches to Ivory Coast and The Gambia. Despite the challenges, Bjorkegren expressed confidence that his team will follow his game plan during the match.
The Black Stars are scheduled to play Somalia at the Sekondi Sports Stadium on Thursday at 3 PM, with a return fixture also planned for the same venue on Monday.
