Black Stars head coach Charles Kwablan Akonnor
Black Stars head coach Charles Kwablan Akonnor believes that only hard work will see his outfit qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Ghana have been drawn in Group G together with South Africa, Zimbabwe and Ethiopia of the Africa World Cup qualifiers.
Black Stars failed to qualify for the last edition of the World Cup in Russia and coach C.K Akonnor claims that Ghana must work hard to achieve the feat this time around.
"We know all the teams South Africa, Zimbabwe and Ethiopia will do their bit to get there but we will put in hard work and we know that hard work pays," said the 45-year old after the draw.
"The last one we went to was in Brazil, we didn't qualify for the last one and we are hoping and believing that this is the time for us to be back there.
"But it is important for us to put in hard work. It is the desire for all the teams to qualify but we will put a lot of work in the desire to qualify."
