Otto Addo, the head coach of the Black Stars, may make adjustments in Ghana's matchup with South Korea in the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
Ghana's opening match against Portugal ended in a 3-2 loss, and they must avoid another setback to avoid being eliminated early from the tournament.
On Monday, November 28, 2022, they play the Asians at Education City Stadium.
The match turning out to be a must-win match for Ghana, the coach may adjust his strategy and starting lineup.
Formation
Otto Addo would be aiming for a win and therefore will approach the game with an offensive strategy, unlike his defensive 5-4-1 system against Portugal.
He could switch to a back and have more men in attacking areas. He is likely to set up his team in a 4-2-3-1 system an approach he feels on when Ghana needed goals against Portugal.
The formation, which was used against Switzerland, Nicaragua, and the latter part of the Portugal game, has given Ghana assurance in attack regarding chances creation and fluidity in build-ups.
Tariq Lamptey
Tariq Lamptey, who made a good impact with his cameo against Portugal could get the nod to start against South Korea.
He contributed immensely to the team's build-up down the right and helped the team's transitions.
Alexander Djiku to start from bench
If Otto Addo decides to settle on a four-back for the game, Djiku, who started in a three-man defense will be sacrificed.
Otto Addo could use the slot for a winger in his lineup.
Kamaldeen Sulemana
One key problem Ghana encountered during the Portugal defeat was the lack of a speedster down the flank.
Ghana's wing game was flat and Otto Addo could change that with the introduction of Kamaldeen on the flanks against South Korea.
