Ghana midfielder Sulley Muntari says the Black Stars can still qualify for the 2018 World Cup despite their poor start in the qualifiers.

The Black Stars trail group leaders Egypt by five points after two rounds of the matches in the qualifiers for the competition to be held in Russia next year.

With four matches remaining fans of the Black Stars have already consigned themselves to defeat claiming they cannot reach the tournament.

However, Muntari insists the Black Stars have a bright chance of qualifying if they are able to win all their remaining matches in the qualifiers.

“The Back Stars can still make it to the World Cup,” Muntari said on football legends night show on GHone.

“In 2006 we lost our first game, we drew our second game and won the rest of the game and we made it to the World Cup.”
