The Black Stars of Ghana will kick off their 2026 FIFA World Cup campaign against Panama in Toronto, Canada, on June 17, 2026.
The Black Stars would be making their fifth appearance at the World Cup as they seek to replicate or surpass their 2010 quarter-final berth.
After their opening encounter against Panama, Ghana would travel to Boston for a June 23 clash against England, a fixture that promises fireworks given the football history between the teams and European giants.
Ghana would conclude their group campaign against Croatia on June 27, 2026, in Philadelphia.
Many football fans and analysts have dubbed Group L the “Group of Death,” with England and Croatia being favourites to advance.
The third-place team in the group could advance to the Round of 32 if they happen to be one of the best third-placed teams.
The Black Stars will look to build momentum ahead of next summer as they target another memorable World Cup run.
