Good evening and welcome to the live text commentary of the coverage of the friendly match between Ghana and Nicaragua.
The Black Stars return to action today after suffering a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Brazil last Friday.
That game played in Le Havre, France, saw the North American side dominating Ghana throughout the 90 minutes.
After days of training to prepare for today’s contest against Nicaragua, Ghana coach Otto Addo and his technical team are hoping to see an improved competitive performance from the Black Stars.
Today’s pre-world cup friendly match for Ghana is being played in Lorca, Spain. Kick-off is at 18:00gmt.
While we build up to the encounter, Ghana head coach Otto Addo has named his starting eleven to play against the opponent.
The team is made up of a lot of changes from the first eleven that started the Brazil game last Friday.
Goalkeeper Richard Ofori is preferred in post this evening to England-based shot-stopper Joseph Wollacott.
While Daniel Amartey keeps his place in the team, he will be partnered by Mohammed Salisu following the injury to his regular partner Alexander Djiku.
Meanwhile, Mohammed Kudus keeps his place in the team and will be linking up play with Osman Bukari, Inaki Williams, and Abdul Fatawu Issahaku.
Below is the Ghana starting eleven:
Richard Ofori (G)- Alidu Seidu, Daniel Amartey, Mohammed Salisu, Gideon Mensah – Baba Iddrisu, Daniel-Kofi Kyereh – Mohammed Kudus, Fatawu Issahaku, Osman Bukari – Iñaki Williams
