Former Ghana player Derek Boateng thinks England is nervous about facing the Black Stars at the upcoming World Cup. He stated plainly that the English side fears Ghana, despite its reputation. Boateng, who played in the 2010 tournament, still warned his national team to prioritize their opening match against Panama, calling a win there essential.
Ghana's group stage schedule sees them play Panama first, then England, and finally Croatia. After failing to advance past the group phase in the last two tournaments, the team is aiming for a deeper run in the expanded 2026 competition. Boateng's comments frame the England match as a psychological battle where Ghana holds a mental edge.
