Thomas Partey believes the Black Stars will deliver an excellent performance against Nigeria despite the pressure coming from Ghanaians.
The deputy skipper will captain the senior national team against Nigeria at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium.
The Black Stars will be hoping to make it to their fourth World Cup, with the Super Eagles, the only stumbling block in securing a ticket to Qatar later in the year.
Partey was speaking at the pre-match press conference on Thursday evening.
“We all know what we have as a team, we have a lot of young talented players coming.
“I understand that Ghanaians demand a lot from us going into the game and we are going to do our best.
The Arsenal midfielder continued:
“We believe in each other, we believe in the coach, the system he wants us to play and I can say that we are ready to go.”
The first leg of the encounter will be played at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Friday, March 25, 2022 and the return leg, four days later in Abuja.
The winner over the two legs will have one of five tickets available to Africa at the 2022 FIFA World Cup to be hosted in Qatar.
