Black Stars head coach Otto Addo has admitted he has a difficult decision to make when it comes to choosing his starting line-up ahead off Ghana’s opening game at the 2022 World Cup.
The gaffer did not have to rely too much on his ‘big guns’ as Ghana defeated Switzerland 2-0 in their final warm up exercise on Thursday.
Mohammed Salisu and Antoine Semenyo were on target at the Zayed Sports Complex to give the West African side a morale boosting win ahead of Portugal clash on November 24.
Speaking after the game, Addo said, “Just as everyone else does, we have a good 26-man squad, everybody showed what he can today and I am happy for that. I am happy that we have quite an equal squad and it will not be easy for me as a coach to choose who will play against Portugal but this is how I wanted.
“It’s better than having eleven players and then afterwards what comes is not so good. I think everybody saw that we have a well-balanced team, a lot of possibilities. This kind of tournament its very, very important to have 26 reliable players and I think a lot of the players showed today that we can count on them.”
Ghana will kick off their World Cup campaign against Portugal, followed by Group H games against South Korea and Uruguay.
