Germany defeat Black Stars in pre-World Cup friendly

The Black Stars suffered another setback, losing 2-1 to Germany in an international friendly on March 30, 2026.

The first 15 minutes were disastrous for the Black Stars as the Germans suffocated them with relentless attacks, but the players managed to hold on.

The team gradually grew into the game, beginning to create chances, with Semenyo and Jordan Ayew pushing the attack.

In the dying embers of the first half, Jonas Adjetey was once again adjudged to have handled the ball, resulting in a penalty.

Arsenal’s Kai Havertz calmly sent Benjamin Asare the wrong way to open the scoring.

The second half began with the Black Stars pushing for an equaliser, which paid off as Fatawu Issahaku’s strike levelled the score at 1-1.

Just when it seemed the Black Stars had earned a draw, Undav lifted the ball past Asare to secure the winner for Die Mannschaft, making it 2-1.

This result brings Ghana’s March 2026 international break to an end after their earlier 5-1 defeat to Austria, as they continue preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
