The Black Stars of Ghana booked their 4th qualification to the FIFA World Cup in Qatar after ending the dreams of the Super Eagles of Nigeria who were hoping to qualify to the Mundial for the 7th time in their history.
Otto Addo became the second black coach after Kwasi Appiah to have qualified Ghana for the World Cup after his team held the Super Eagles to a 1-1 drawn game at the Moshood Abiola Sports Stadium in Abuja on Tuesday, March 29, 2022.
The two sides drew 0-0 in the first leg in Kumasi last week and heading into the return fixture, the Ghanaians only needed a scoring draw to progress.
And they did exactly that, qualifying for the World Cup after missing the 2018 showpiece in Russia. For Nigeria, this is the first time they will be missing the World Cup since 2006.
As Ghanaians continue to celebrate the victory over the Nigerians, European clubs also joined the train to congratulate their players and staff who were part of the Ghanaian team.
