Ghana coach Otto Addo is feeling aggrieved over the scheduling of matches in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.

The Black Stars, who dispatched Chad 5-0 at the Accra Sports Stadium, have just a three-day interval before their next encounter against Madagascar.

Meanwhile, Madagascar's 4-1 victory over the Central African Republic took place two days earlier compared to Ghana’s match.

"It's worrying because also we need to travel. Madagascar are already in Morocco so for them it is much easier," Addo said at the post-match press conference.

"I don't know who is doing the schedule. There is nothing we can do. We have to accept it.

"It will be very tough. They [Madagascar] have a really good team, good victory against CAR so it will be very tough. [Our] Preparations starts now. It is good we won and we can focus on Madagascar."

Ghana sit top of Group I with 12 points and a win against Madagascar on Monday would further solidify their place at the top and move them closer to securing qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
