The poster has 2 players from Ghana. interestingly, all the captains of the 32 sides are present as well as some additional players. Ghana has Andre Ayew representing as well as another player in the mix. Ghana will come up against Portugal in their first match and then later face Uruguay before rounding things up with South Korea. In 2014 Portugal beat the Black Stars by 2-1 while in 2010 Ghana lost on penalties to Uruguay.

The player has been surrounded with some controversial issues and Ghanaians will be praying that by the time the tournament starts in November he will be in top form. Ghana has also received some fresh legs in the form of new players. It is yet to be seen how they will blend in the team.
