Ghana head coach Carlos Queiroz has rallied his team ahead of their World Cup Group L match against England, declaring that the squad will draw on the strength of the nation's 33 million people rather than past results. The match, scheduled for Tuesday at Boston Stadium, will determine the top spot in the group.
Speaking to reporters, Queiroz emphasized the importance of national identity and discipline. 'We have 33 million lions to fight,' he said, referring to the support of the Ghanaian people. The coach avoided discussing historical encounters, instead focusing on the unity and determination of his current squad.
England, led by manager Gareth Southgate, are considered favorites, but Queiroz remains confident. 'We respect England, but we fear no one,' he added. The match is set to kick off at 8 PM local time.
