Coventry City forward Brandon Thomas-Asante has said the Black Stars are eager to put on a show for fans in the Western Region, ahead of Thursday’s Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON 2027) Qualifier against Somalia.

Ghana, who are bottom of Group C with zero points, need to win both games against Somalia.

Speaking ahead of the game, Thomas-Asante said, ‘‘We want to make sure that we give them a show that everyone wants to see. On a personal note, I’d rather show than tell what I do, but I hope that people have been able to see over a period of time the energy and the passion that I bring on the pitch, mixed with always being a goal threat and also like to put on a show for the fans as well. I think that’s part of the Ghanaian way of making football beautiful.’’

Thursday’s match will be a first for Ghana at the Sekondi Sports Stadium, since hosting Lesotho at the venue in 2009.

On Wednesday, a section of the fans who attended the team’s training made a good impression on Thomas Asante, who was training in the stadium for the first time.

‘‘It’s a real blessing because even when we got off the bus for training, you could feel the atmosphere. There’s an energy. It’s a change. It’s positive. We also recognise that there’s support all across the country. To be able to have these two games here is a blessing.’’

Ghana will face Somalia at the Sekondi Sports Stadium on Thursday at 3 PM, before meeting at the same venue on Monday for the reverse fixture.
