The Black Stars continued their winning run in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, beating Madagascar 3-0 on Monday, March 24, 2025, at the Mimoun Al Arsi Stadium in Morocco. A brace from Thomas Partey and a goal from Mohammed Kudus were enough as the Black Stars extended their points tally to 15 with four games remaining. After dominating Chad on Friday, March 21, 2025, the four-time AFCON champions knew that a win would provide a significant boost in their quest to secure a ticket to the 2026 World Cup, and they wasted no time in making their intentions clear. Partey headed in from close range after a pinpoint cross from captain Jordan Ayew off a freekick, giving the Black Stars the lead in the eleventh minute. However, the Black Stars couldn’t capitalize on further opportunities in the first half and went into the break with a narrow 1-0 lead. Nonetheless, the team doubled their lead nine minutes into the second half as Partey once again headed home from a cross by Jordan Ayew. Five minutes later, Jordan Ayew provided his third assist of the night with a sublime pass to Kudus, who made it 3-0. The goal marked Kudus’s 12th for the Black Stars and his first in fifteen appearances. Despite Madagascar’s attacking threats, Benjamin Asare stood firm, making crucial saves to deny their efforts and capping off his international debut with two games and two clean sheets. The win solidifies Ghana’s position at the top, extending their lead to five points ahead of second-place Madagascar who have 10 points.
