Ahead of the 2023 African Nations Championship final qualifying game against arch-rivals Nigeria, the Black Galaxies of Ghana will be participating in a Four Nations Tournament in Austria this month, BSNSports.com.ng reports.
The Ghana Football Association has assented to Black Galaxies representing the country in the said Tournament which early on was supposed to be for the Black Stars.
The Tournament will involve World Cup host Qatar, North African country Morocco and Jamaica competing for the diadem.
The tournament will also serve as Black Galaxies preparations ahead of their final CHAN game against Nigeria.
The Black Galaxies of Ghana will face Nigeria in the final round of 2023 CHAN qualifiers between August 26-28, 2022.
The home-based national team eliminated Benin in the preliminary round to progress to the next round.
Ghana defeated Benin 3-0 in the first leg at the Cape Coast Sports Stadium before sealing a 1-0 win at Port Novo in the second leg on Saturday.
Hearts of Oak forward Daniel Afriyie Barnie was the star man in both legs as he scored two goals to help the Black Galaxies inch closer to securing qualification to the CHAN tournament.
