Minister of Youth and Sports, Honourable Mustapha Ussif says Ghana received $90,000 from Brazil for the pre-World Cup friendly in France.

Ghana lost 3:0 to Brazil in an international friendly in September.

 
Neymar added to Richarlison's brace to run riot over the Black Stars.
 
Ghana will face Portugal, Uruguay and South Korea in the group stage of the World Cup.
 
Ghana will play Switzerland in their final pre-World Cup friendly on 17th November in Abu Dhabi.
 
Reports of Ghana paying Brazil for the friendly game dominated the media some weeks ago, as GFA insisted that it was false.
 
Mustapha Ussif said Ghana received $90,000 from Brazil in their friendly encounter.
 
"Per the agreement I have sighted, Brazil paid the Ghana Football Association $90,000 for the friendly match," he said on Joy News.
 
"We could have gotten more but because it was (at) very short (notice), Brazil had a lot of African nations to play and because it was (at) short notice you either take it or leave and Ghana too needed the game," he added.
