The Black Stars have booked a place at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar after a 1-1 draw against Nigeria in Abuja.

This means the Stars go through to their fourth World Cup in five attempts having missed out on Russia 2018.

Otto Addo’s men went into the second leg against Nigeria in Abuja needing to avoid defeat to give themselves a chance of making it through to this year’s tournament.

That task seemed even more daunting as the two teams stepped out to the stadium-rocking chants from the home fans.

The Nigerian side appeared to feed off the energy in the stadium and pinned the Black Stars back for most of the early exchanges.

However, it was the Black Stars who took a shock lead.

After some good hold-up play from Jordan Ayew, Gideon Mensah’s pass found Thomas Partey on the edge of the Nigerian box.

The Arsenal midfielder’s powerful effort went straight through Super Eagles goalie Uzoho and into the back of the net sparking wild celebrations from the away side.
