Ghana coach Otto Addo is happy the Black Stars were not pitted in the same group against Germany and Spain.
The Black Stars were paired against Portugal, Uruguay and South Korea in a draw that was held in Doha, Qatar last Friday.
Otto Addo, who guided the Black Stars to qualify at the expense of Nigeria in an interview with Accra-based Asempa FM said it is good Ghana are not in the same group as Germany and Spain.
‘I didn’t have any team in mind but when I look at the group with Germany and Spain, it is good that we are not in the same group with these countries” he said.
The Black Stars will tackle Portugal in the opening game of the Group before facing Asian giants South Korea in the next group game.
The African powerhouse will wrap up their group campaign with a clash against the first-ever winners of the Mundial in 1930, Uruguay.
Ghana, the four-time African champions will be making their fourth appearance at the Mundial after participating in 2006, 2010 and 2014 editions.
The West African giants returned to the World Cup on Tuesday after eliminating regional rivals Nigeria, advancing on away goal advantage.
Due to Qatar’s intense summer heat, this World Cup will be held from late November to mid-December, making it the first tournament not to be held in May, June, or July; it is to be played in a reduced timeframe of around 28 days.
It is scheduled to take place in Qatar from 21 November to 18 December 2022 across five cities.
