Madagascar's coach, Corentin Martins, says his team is training intensively for their important World Cup qualifier against Ghana.

He mentioned that the Barea are focusing on their best strategies to handle the challenge posed by the Black Stars.

Martins recognized Ghana’s strong form, especially after their impressive 5-0 win over Chad, with several key players from major European clubs.

Despite this, he emphasized that the result of this match won’t determine their World Cup qualification, as there are still more games ahead.

"We're going to play our way. We're going to try to annoy them [Black Stars] as much as possible. Ghana have great players who play in major European leagues.

"We have to play a similar kind of game to stand a chance of winning points from Ghana. This game is not decisive because there are four other games still to be played," he said as reported by ghanasoccernet.com.

Madagascar enters the match with confidence after a solid 4-1 win over the Central African Republic.

The Black Stars will face Madagascar at the Mimoun Al Arsi Stadium in Morocco, which has a capacity of 12,000, on March 24, 2025.

Ghana leads Group I with 12 points, while Madagascar is right behind with 10 points.
