Renowned broadcaster Nana Aba Anamoah has called on Black Stars players to boycott their next home match in protest of the poor pitch conditions.

In a post on X, she urged the players to take a stand and demand better playing surfaces, suggesting they refuse to play until the pitches are restored to the required standard.

"For me, the players should boycott the next game if that pitch is not fixed. (But who am I, in Wontumi’s voice?)"" she wrote.

"The players need to speak up against the greed, lies, and disregard for what’s right. How is the FA comfortable with that pitch?"

The Baba Yara Stadium received conditional approval to host the match after the National Sports Authority fell short of meeting the required standards following a five-day church event held at the venue.

After the Black Stars' loss to Angola, head coach Otto Addo highlighted that the poor condition of the pitch played a significant role in the team's underwhelming performance.

"It was unlucky for Mumin, but we made some errors even before that situation. But the pitch was not good, and we can’t overlook that," he said.

Ghana began the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers with a 1-0 home defeat at the Baba Yara Stadium. This was the team’s first loss in 24 years at the venue.

They will be hoping to get back to winning ways in their second group game against Niger on Monday, September 9.
