Ghana captain Jordan Ayew is brimming with confidence as the Black Stars prepare to take on Madagascar in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
The much-anticipated encounter is set for Monday night at the Al Hoceima Grand Stadium in Morocco, with both teams eager to secure maximum points.
A stunning victory over Chad last Friday propelled Ghana to the top of Group I, where they currently lead with 12 points. However, the challenge remains steep as Madagascar trails closely in second place with 10 points, setting the stage for a hard-fought battle.
Reflecting on the team’s recent performance and the upcoming challenge, Ayew affirmed the squad’s readiness and determination. “The first stage has been done against Chad and now we have to do it against Madagascar. The boys are ready and I’m fully confident that we will do it and make Ghana proud,” he declared.
The Leicester City star, who found the back of the net in the emphatic win over Chad, is eager to add to his tally. With five goals in just five matches during the qualifiers, Ayew’s contribution is proving vital for Ghana.
A victory in this crucial match will not only boost the team’s chances of qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup but will also strengthen Coach Otto Addo’s side as they aim to build on their impressive form.
