Ghana forward Ernest Nuamah remains confident the Black Stars can recover from their poor start to the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers and secure a place at the tournament.
The four-time African champions have lost their opening two Group C matches and sit bottom of the standings without a point.
Ghana suffered a 2-0 defeat to Côte d’Ivoire in Bouaké before surrendering a two-goal lead in a 4-2 loss to The Gambia at the Accra Sports Stadium.
Despite the disappointing results, Nuamah believes the Black Stars have what it takes to turn their campaign around.
Speaking to CANAL+, the winger, who has been excused from the squad for the upcoming double-header against Somalia, insisted Ghana could still achieve qualification.
“Ghana has always been one of the top countries in Africa, but now we have not had good results, and it has been a difficult moment for us. But at the end of the day, we are still Ghana,” he said.
“We will definitely come up, and we will do everything possible to qualify for the AFCON. It is not done yet. Even though we have had a little bit of struggle, we will achieve our goals and play in the tournament,” he added.
The Black Stars now face a crucial double-header against Somalia, with the first leg scheduled for Thursday, November 12, and the return fixture on Monday, November 16. Both matches will be played at the Essipong Sports Stadium.
