Ghana defender Denis Odoi is confident the Black Stars can upset Portugal in their 2022 World Cup Group H opener on Thursday.
The Clubbe Brugge right back is taking his inspiration from Saudi Arabia, the second-lowest-ranked team in the tournament, who came from behind to stun Lionel Messi’s Argentina 2-1 on Tuesday.
“Of course, seeing what Saudi Arabia have achieved just proves that you have to play all the matches. It’s not because you are a smaller country than your opponent that everything is a foregone conclusion. And then, based on my experience, this season in the Champions League, nobody would have given us a chance to go to the round of 16. And yet, after four matches, we qualified. So my takeaway is that when you play as a team, you can do anything”
The match is scheduled to kick off at 4pm at the Ras Abu Aboud Stadium.
