Black Stars

The Senior National team will play Switzerland in an International friendly ahead of their opening match at the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 tournament.

This will be the first time Ghana will face Switzerland in an International friend encounter.

The anticipated game will take place on Thursday, November 17, 2022 at the Baniyas Club Stadium in Abu Dhabi – United Arab Emirates.

The game will serve as a preparatory ground for the Black Stars ahead of opening Group H match against  Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal in match day one at Stadium 974 on November 24.

Coach Otto Addo will use this encounter to unleash Tariq Lamptey, Inaki Williams and three other Europe-born players who switch their allegiance to Ghana last month.

The 2010 World Cup quarter-finalist have been drawn in Group H of the World Cup alongside Portugal, Uruguay, and South Korea.
