Some Black Stars players have turned to their social media accounts to apologise to Ghanaians ,following the team's elimination from the ongoing 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Last Friday's group stage elimination match between Ghana and Uruguay ended in a 2-0 loss for Ghana.
It was the second consecutive time the Black Stars exited the World Cup on the group stage.
Most Ghanaian fans were left disappointed after an impressive performance against South Korea in the second group match which the team won 3-2.
The game against Uruguay was declared a revenge match after the first meeting between the two sides 12 years ago.
The South American side denied Ghana a semi-final berth in that competition following a Luis Suarez handball and a resultant penalty kick missed by Asamoah Gyan.
Despite the promises to beat Uruguay in the final group game the Black Stars succumb to another defeat.
After the game, Black Stars captain Andre Ayew and some players have apologized and also thanked the fans for the support during the tournament.
The Ghana Football Association were the first to issue the apology after the team’s exit from the competition.
“We regret our inability to progress to the knockout phase of the competition and offer our profound apologies to the government, the people of Ghana and all stakeholders across the globe.
“We believe that valuable lessons have been learnt from our qualification and participation in the tournament and aim to continue with the positives going into the future”.
Dede Ayew
Our final group match result was not what we were looking forward to in the tournament,but unfortunately, it ended up this way.
I am very, very proud of all teammates for putting up a wonderful team spirit on and off the pitch, off the pitch, for our country Ghana.
Personally, it’s has been difficult moments for me in the past few days. I lost my godson the morning before the Portugal game and my daughter was also rushed to the hospital after the Uruguay game. Thanks to the Almighty Allah she is getting better. These difficult moments will inspire me come back stronger and better in the future, and so I believe with the Black Stars

It was our biggest wish to give Ghanaians something to cheer about but unfortunately it didn’t go as we wanted.
I want to say a huge thank you for the unconditional support from home and across the world.
With the support of God we will come back stronger.🙏
