Ghana 2026 World Cup Qualification Group Stage

Ghana is a member of the Confederation of African Football (CAF), the governing body for football in Africa. As such, they will participate in the 2026 World Cup qualification process along with the other 54 CAF members. The African continent will be allocated 9 slots in the 2026 tournament instead of the 5 tickets in the previous World Cups. FIFA is set to hold the preliminary Qualification Draw for the 2026 World Cup qualification football in July 2023. The grouping of all soccer-playing regions from across the world, including Africa, will be shown in the draw. Ghana qualification group, schedule, time, and dates will be listed here as soon as the group fixtures are announced and available.

Ghana is one of Africa’s most successful national football sides and has qualified for 4 previous FIFA World Cups (2006, 2010, 2014, 2022). With strong performances in recent tournaments, Ghana looks well-placed to qualify for their 5th consecutive FIFA World Cup. After a great run in the previous qualifiers, Ghana qualified for the 2022 FIFA World Cup by defeating Nigeria with an away goal advantage via a two-leg playoff by a score of 1-1 aggregate.

The Black Stars were drawn into Group H of the 2022 World Cup with top-class sides such as Portugal, Uruguay, and South Korea. Ghana first took on Portugal and lost 3-2 before winning against South Korea by a 3-2 score. In their finale against Uruguay on 2nd December, Ghana needed a win to advance but instead lost 2-0. With this disappointment, Ghana will be poised to get another chance to prove critics wrong.

Ghana’s World Cup Qualification History

Until recent years, Ghana’s World Cup Qualification history is full of heartbreak and near-misses. The Black Stars have come close to qualifying for the World’s biggest stage on several occasions, but they have always fallen just short. For the Black Stars, who have participated in more than 60 qualifiers since August 28, 1960, it has been a protracted battle.

But on September 4, 2005, the Black Stars eventually arrived at their desired location after 45 years of fighting for the biggest stage – a period that was far longer than the time it took Moses to guide the Israelites to the promised land. Ghana defeated Uganda 2-0 to advance to their first World Cup in Germany’s 2006 tournament. After their initial qualification, the Black Stars have advanced from the World Cup qualifiers on 3 more occasions: 2010, 2014, and 2022 missing just 2018 in the process.

After being drawn into a tough group G (South Africa, Ethiopia, Zimbabwe) for the 2022 WC qualifiers, Ghana made it to Qatar 2022 by topping the group with 13 points. The Black Stars went through a dramatic two-legged playoff with Nigeria to finally earn their spot.

Ghana has competed in 15 games during the course of its five FIFA World Cup competitions, winning 5, losing 7, and drawing 3. The total goals scored and given up by the Black Stars are 18 and 23, respectively.

With Ghana’s consistency and performance in the World Cup, Ghanaians will be delighted to get a ticket to one of the biggest WC ever in its history (2026 WC). All this and the homecoming of some international players like Inaki Wiliams (Athletico Bilbao), Tariq Lamptey (Brighton), and Jeffrey Schlupp (Crystal Palace) have filled the atmosphere around the team with belief and confidence!
