Ghana will leave their camping base in Kenya on Saturday morning to play Congo in the crucial 2012 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier.

The Black Stars have been training in Nairobi since Tuesday for the Group I match and a friendly against England on 29 March.

A proposal to play the Harambee Stars was rejected by Kenya coach Zedekiah Otieno.

“We have three more training sessions before we say we are ready for Congo but definitely it is going to be a very tough match,” Ghana FA vice president Fred Pappoe said.
