Ghana head coach Otto Addo has warned that the Black Stars are not yet guaranteed a spot at the 2026 FIFA World Cup despite their emphatic 3-0 victory over Madagascar in the qualifiers.
Thomas Partey scored twice, with Mohammed Kudus adding another, as captain Jordan Ayew registered all three assists in a dominant display in Morocco. The win puts Ghana in a strong position in Group I, but Addo insists the team must remain focused.

“We are in a good position to qualify for the 2026 World Cup, but this is also dangerous,” Addo said at the post-match press conference.
“Now, I am thinking about how to keep our heads focused because the job is really not done. Maybe if Comoros wins, it’s just a three-point gap ahead of Comoros, and it’s still a long way to go. We have to stay focused. If anyone thinks we are through, then he’s making a big mistake.”
With several games left in the qualifiers, Addo stressed the need for his players to maintain their concentration and avoid complacency.
“I have seen a lot of football, a lot of things happening, and we have to stay focused. I am happy, but like I said, the job is really not done,” he reiterated.
Ghana will now turn their attention to the next round of qualifiers in June, as they look to solidify their place at the 2026 World Cup in the USA, Canada, and Mexico.
