Ghanaian star midfielder Mohammed Kudus has expressed confidence and excitement following Ghana’s placement in the same World Cup group as England. Speaking boldly about the challenge ahead, Kudus emphasized that the Black Stars’ qualification alone is already a major achievement — and facing England presents an opportunity to make an even bigger global statement.
According to Kudus, just qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup sends a message about Ghana’s rising quality, discipline, and determination on the international stage. He noted that the team respects England’s strength but is fully aware of what is required to compete at the highest level.
“Just qualifying for the World Cup is already a big statement from us,” Kudus said. “And it’s good that we face England in the group. It will be an exciting match. I’m looking forward to it. We fully understand the team we’ll be up against and their quality, and we will be ready for it.”
The match between Ghana and England is already one of the most anticipated group-stage fixtures, especially considering the history, intensity, and excitement that always surrounds Ghana’s World Cup campaigns. Fans from both nations have reacted strongly online, with many calling it a “must-watch clash” and others predicting fireworks when the two teams meet in June.
Kudus, who continues to play a vital role for the Black Stars, believes the group offers Ghana a chance to prove itself against high-ranking nations. He stressed that Ghana’s mentality for the World Cup is built on courage, preparation, and unity — qualities that have defined the team’s biggest achievements in the past.
“We know what this means to Ghanaians back home and to Africans watching us,” he added. “We will prepare, stay focused, and give everything for the badge.”
As preparations continue, the match against England is expected to draw massive global attention, with analysts predicting tactical brilliance, emotional intensity, and standout performances from top players on both sides. For Ghana, the fixture represents more than just football — it is a moment to showcase belief, resilience, and national pride on the world stage.
