Pimpong played for Ghana at the 2006 World Cup. He recounts his World Cup memories fondly.

“It was something special. I was born in Jamestown and you don’t get many opportunities around there. Standing in the stadium and playing in the World Cup was something that I will never forget,” he said.

Ghana will face Switzerland in their final friendly match in November.

Ghana will open their campaign against Portugal on November 24 at Stadium 974 in Doha.

Four days later, the Black Stars return to action with a clash with South Korea at the Education City Stadium in Al Rayyan.

Ghana will wrap up their group stage adventure with their much-anticipated encounter with Uruguay at Al Janoub Stadium in Al Wakrah.

The 2022 global showpiece has been scheduled to kick off from November 20 to December 18.
