London, Uk - 28 May, 2025 - Today's highly anticipated match between Ghana's Black Stars and Nigeria takes center stage at the Gtech Stadium in London as the two teams clash in the semifinal of the 2025 Unity Cup.

Black Stars head coach Otto Addo is determined to lead his team to victory, building on the momentum of recent wins over Chad and Madagascar in the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers.

“I think everyone knows what it's about, surely, it's a friendly game, but it's not really a friendly game. So yeah, we know what it's about, and we want our people to be proud of us, and we want our people to talk from a certain perspective, and surely, it's always about who has the better team,” he said during a press conference ahead of the match.

Despite acknowledging that both teams are evenly matched, Addo expressed confidence in his team's ability to succeed.

“And sometimes margins can decide the outcome of the game. I think normally, to be honest; we are on the same level. But yeah, we're hoping that we will win, hoping that we'll be successful. It's going to be tough, but I'm sure we can do it,'' he added.

The stakes are high, with the winner advancing to the final against either Trinidad & Tobago or Jamaica on May 31.
