The\u00a0Black Stars\u00a0have failed to win their first two games in\u00a0Otto Addo\u2019s second stint as Ghana national team head coach.<\/p>\n
The former Borussia Dortmund talent coach was named as\u00a0Black Stars\u00a0coach at the start of March for a second spell after he left the role following Ghana\u2019s group stage exit from the 2022 AFCON.<\/p>\n
The four-time champions from Africa suffered a 2-1 defeat against traditional rivals Nigeria last Friday, conceding goals in both halves.<\/p>\n
In their recent international friendly at Stade Marrakesh, the\u00a0Black Stars\u00a0twice surrendered their lead, resulting in a 2-2 draw against Uganda.<\/p>\n
Jerome Opoku provided an early lead, with Jordan Ayew later converting a penalty to regain the lead for Ghana after Steven Mukwala\u2019s equalizer for Uganda from the penalty spot. However, Muhammad Shaban scored a scrappy goal in the 82nd minute to level the game, securing a notable draw for Uganda.<\/p>\n
Ghana faces a crucial away 2026 World Cup qualifier against Mali in the neighboring West African nation, followed by another significant match against the Central African Republic back home three days later.<\/p>\n
With just three points from two matches, one win and one loss, Ghana currently occupies third place in Group I.<\/p>\n
