Ghana Football Association (GFA) President, Kurt Edwin Simeon-Okraku has stated that securing qualification to the 2022 FIFA World Cup is like going to heaven.
With the FIFA World Cup slated to take place in Qatar from 20th, November to December 18, Okraku maintained that qualifying for the FIFA World Cup is a great achievement, although most people don't really understand as the Black Stars are part of the 32 teams set to participate in the quadrennial international men's football championship.
“A lot of us, don’t really understand what we have achieved or what we achieved in 2006, 2010, 2014, and 2022," he said during his address at the National Team Day ‘Walk with the Legends’ event held on Saturday.
"To be one of the countries at the World Cup, it’s like going to heaven - with the unity of purpose, our dear country is one of the 32," he added.
Ghana will kick start their World Cup campaign on November 24 against Portugal and will neck-it-down with South Korea and Uruguay to wrap up their group stage fixtures.
