According to Andre Ayew, the Black Stars have the quality to impress in the ongoing World Cup in Qatar.
The Black Stars captain believes the team’s inexperience will be irrelevant because they have the talent to beat any opponent in the tournament.
Ahead of the Black Stars’ World Cup opener against The Selection of the Shields on Thursday, he spoke to the press and was asked about the team’s chances given that only two players in the current squad have World Cup experience.
“It’s true my brother and I are the only ones [in the Ghana team] to play in the World Cup but it doesn’t mean anything because we also came to play and it was a first at some point and we were able to do good things on the field.
“For me, I believe that the squad we have the quality to really impress and show the World what we are capable of.
“Every tournament is different and every tournament has its own excitement. The World Cup is the one that we always dream to play as young kids so for me it’s unbelievable for me to be here to play a third World Cup.
“But most important is to be able to perform on the pitch individually and collectively.”
This will be Andre’s third World Cup appearance after appearances in 2010 and 2014, whiles Jordan will be making his second appearance after appearing in 2014.
