Somalia’s national team have begun preparations in Ghana ahead of their upcoming 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying double-header against the Black Stars.
The Ocean Stars held their first training session at the University of Ghana Stadium on Monday as they stepped up preparations for Thursday’s opening encounter against Ghana.
Somalia will be hoping to turn their campaign around after losing their first two Group C matches. They suffered a 2-1 defeat away to The Gambia before falling 2-0 to Côte d’Ivoire in their second fixture.
Like Ghana, who also lost their opening two games, the Somali side will be looking to collect their first points and improve their position in the group through the two meetings.
The first game will take place on Thursday, November 12, before the teams meet again for the return fixture on Monday, November 16, all matches to be staged at the Essipong Stadium.
Kick-off for the two games is scheduled for 15:00 GMT (3:00pm).
