Ghana’s head coach, Otto Addo has noted that he is confident his side will defeat Sudan in their second meeting in the qualifiers for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations tournament.

The encounter is scheduled to be played on Tuesday, October 15.

The first meeting between the two national teams ended in a goalless stalemate last Thursday at the Accra Sports Stadium in Ghana.

Ahead of the reverse fixture, Ghana coach Otto Addo reiterated that he believes the Black Stars should have won the first game.

He is now aiming for victory in the second meeting.

“It’s part of football, sometimes you're lucky, sometimes you're unlucky. It belongs to the game, but the probability is very high that you can't be there three times in a row.

"I'm sure that, like I said, if we show the same attitude towards this game, the same beliefs, we have to be mentally strong, then I'm very sure we will win this game. The last game gives me really big confidence that we can do it,” coach Otto Addo said.

The Black Stars will take on Sudan in Libya on Tuesday, October 15, 2024, with the match set to kick off at 13:00 GMT.

As pressure mounts, all eyes will be on Addo’s men to secure the much-needed three points and keep their AFCON dream alive.
