Ghana Football Association (GFA) has branded Nigeria as “little babies” that pretend to be big boys ahead of the crucial 2022 World Cup qualifier between both countries that will take place in Kumasi on March 25.
During an interview ahead of the match, the President of GFA, Kurt Okraku, said Black Stars of Ghana will come out victorious.
Okraku says the Black Stars must stand up and be counted.
He said: “It’s that time of the year where every Ghanaian will have to stand up and be counted. It’s that time of the year where our country’s pride is at stake.
“It’s that time of the year where Ghana must be at the Mundial, but before we do that, we have a common foe, the Super Eagles of Nigeria. They come across as our little babies, but they pretend to be the big boys.”
The return leg of the encounter will take place on Tuesday, March 29 at Moshood Abiola National Stadium Abuja.
GFA President’s statement came after Nigeria’s Sports Minister, Sunday Dare, made it clear the Super Eagles “will beat the sh*t” out of Ghana.
In a video, Dare said: “We’re not going to play a draw in Ghana, honestly. We’ll beat the sh*t out of them.
“These guys should just go out, there’s insurance to their next match. There’s insurance there and there’s insurance here.”
