The Sudanese national team, led by Ghanaian coach Kwasi Appiah, are flying high in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, having won two and drawn one of the three matches played so far.<\/p>\n
On Thursday, June 6, 2024, Sudan secured their second win of the campaign with a 2-0 victory over Mauritania.<\/p>\n
Two goals in the first half ensured that Kwasi Appiah and his team moved to the top of Group B with seven points from three games.<\/p>\n
