Many Ghanaians have been carried away following the triumph of the Ghana Black Stars at Nigeria on Tuesday.
The senior national football team qualified for the World Cup after holding the Super Eagles of Nigeria to a 1-1 draw in Abuja.
The Stars secured a spot to play at the 2022 FIFA World Cup, to be hosted by Qatar, after Thomas Partey scored an opening goal in the 10th minute, but William Troost-Ekong equalised for the home side.

Despite several attempts from Nigeria in the second half, there was no goal to separate the two sides as Ghana secured qualification on the away goal rule.
Congratulations to the Ghana #BlackStars. Qatar, here we come
