Ghana’s Black Stars put on a scintillating performance as they thrashed Chad 5-0 in a one-sided encounter. The team showed intent right from the kickoff, pressing high and creating chances at will.

It took just two minutes for Ghana to break the deadlock. A quick attacking move saw Antoine Semenyo capitalizing on a defensive lapse to fire home the opener, setting the tone for what would be a long night for Chad.

Five minutes later, Ghana struck again. A reckless challenge inside the box saw the referee point to the penalty spot. Jordan Ayew stepped up confidently and slotted the ball past the Chad goalkeeper to extend the lead to 3-0 in the 36th minute.

The second half continued in the same fashion, with Ghana dominating possession and pushing Chad deep into their half. The Black Stars’ attacking prowess was once again on display in the 56th minute when Mohammed Salisu powered home a header from an Ernest Nuamah cross, making it 4-0.

With Chad struggling to contain Ghana’s fluid attack, the fifth goal was inevitable. In the 68th minute, Jordan Ayew produced a moment of brilliance with a deft backheel pass that sent Ernest Nuamah through on goal. The young winger made no mistake, slotting the ball past the goalkeeper to complete the rout.

It was a commanding performance from the Black Stars, sending a strong message to their opponents in future fixtures. Their attacking fluidity, defensive solidity, and relentless pressing ensured a comfortable victory, leaving Chad with no answers to Ghana’s superiority.
