2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers: Otto Addo aiming to build on winning momentum against Angola and Niger

Ghana coach Otto Addo is aiming to build on the momentum gathered from the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying wins in March and carry it into the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers in September.

Ghana came from behind to beat Mali 2-1 and the Central African Republic 4-3 in March, and will face Angola and Niger next week.

Otto Addo will announce his squad on Thursday, August 29, 2024, for the two games.

The Black Stars will host Angola on September 5 at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi, kicking off their Group F campaign.

They will then travel to Niamey to take on Niger four days later at the Stade Général Seyni Kountché.

These early matches will set the tone for Ghana's quest to secure a spot in the prestigious continental tournament, as they aim to build momentum and establish their dominance in the group.

Otto Addo will hope to capitalize on this momentum and the early-season form of his players to secure victories against Angola and Niger.
