Ghana vs Uruguay LIVE: World Cup 2022 team news and line-ups in Qatar – Ghana seek revenge and last-16 spot

One win could mean a spot in the last 16 for both Uruguay and Ghana on Friday – though only the latter have that guaranteed.

It’s possible the South Americans win and still go out, if South Korea also beat already-qualified Portugal and maintain a better goal difference than Darwin Nunez and co.

Ghana have been very impressive in spells at the World Cup, considering they are effectively a new team with plenty of inexperienced players at international level.

The likes of Mohammed Kudus and Jordan Ayew have been very influential, while Inaki Williams has led the line well despite still waiting for his first goal for the national team.

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the game:

Welcome to The Independent’s live coverage as Ghana play Uruguay in the World Cup Group H decider at Al Janoub Stadium.

The Black Stars are seeking “revenge” and labelled Luis Suarez as the “devil” after conceding a penalty for handling in the area in the 2010 quarter-final only for Asamoah Gyan to miss the spot kick and the South Americans to advance on penalties.

But Suarez maintains a desire for revenge can be “counter-productive” with his country desperate to win after defeat to Portugal, while Otto Addo’s side are buoyed by a thrilling win over South Korea.

Mohammed Kudus could be the hero for the Africans after his brace last time out and they will likely only need a draw to advance to the last 1.
