Ghana’s Black Stars produced a dominant performance to secure a resounding 5-0 victory over Chad in their CAF World Cup qualifying match at the Accra Sports Stadium tonight (March 21, 2025), a result that sees them move to the top of Group I.
The emphatic win was a much-needed boost for the team, which had been under immense pressure following their failure to qualify for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations and a six-game winless run in the qualifiers.

However, the Black Stars wasted no time in settling into the contest, with Bournemouth forward Antoine Semenyo opening the scoring in the second minute. A dangerous cross into the box created confusion in the Chadian defence, allowing Semenyo to pounce and calmly slot home.

Ghana dominated proceedings, enjoying the lion’s share of possession but initially struggling to find a clinical edge. That changed in the 31st minute when Inaki Williams of Athletic Club rose high to meet an in-swinging cross, heading in Ghana’s second goal.
The Black Stars continued to turn the screw, and five minutes later, Antoine Semenyo was brought down in the penalty area after a surging run. Captain Jordan Ayew stepped up and confidently dispatched the penalty to give Ghana a commanding 3-0 lead by the 36th minute.

The second half followed a similar pattern, with Ghana dictating play and creating numerous chances. Eleven minutes after the restart, Mohammed Salisu added a fourth, rising unchallenged to nod in Ernest Nuamah’s well-delivered corner.
With the game firmly under control, Ghana added a fifth in the 68th minute. Nuamah, who had provided the assist for the fourth goal, turned scorer, meeting a cut-back from Jordan Ayew before placing a precise finish into the bottom corner to seal the rout.
