<p>Ghana gave their qualification hopes a huge boost when they recorded&nbsp;<a href="https://www.pulse.com.gh/sports/football/black-stars/mali-1-2-ghana-super-sub-jordan-ayew-secures-vital-win-for-black-stars-in-bamako/ebplrvq">an important 1-2 victory over Mali</a> in Bamako last Thursday.</p>

<p>Second-half goals from Ernest Nuamah helped Otto Addo’s side to secure a win that took them level on six points at the top of Group I, alongside Madagascar and Comoros.</p>

<p>The Black Stars will have an opportunity to add three more points to their tally when they host the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.pulse.com.gh/sports/football/black-stars/baba-yara-stadium-to-host-ghana-vs-central-african-republic-world-cup-qualifier/stz6s6s">CAR</a> in Kumasi.</p>

<p>Speaking at a pre-match press conference, Ghana coach Otto Addo said the game against CAR won’t be a walkover and urged his players not to relax.</p>

<p><em>“One thing is for sure. I think it’s going to be very, very difficult. For anyone who thinks that we can just play them like that, I don’t it will happen,”</em> Addo said. </p>

<p><em>“It if happens, I take it. But it’s very, very difficult to beat them. We have analyzed them well. They are doing well, especially in their offensive transitions and always dangerous. They played 1-1 against Mali so we know what to expect. Despite the win, we can’t relax now, we have to continue.”</em></p>

<p>The Black Stars are currently level on points with Madagascar and Comoros but will move to nine points if they beat CAR on Monday. </p>
