Among these players, comes Fatawu Issahaku who played only in the second match. In the first match that Ghana played against Brazil football club which ended 3-0 in the favor of Brazil, no Ghanaian player was able to score a goal.

In the second match, Fatawu Issahaku curled the ball into the far corner of the poles and scored. After he scored the goal, he became the first Ghanaian to score a goal in the 2022 world cup friendlies. He scored against Nicaragua national football team.

Fatawu Issahaku is one of the players that were criticized by Ghanaian Journalists that he doesn’t deserve a call up to play for the Ghana Black Stars, because he has not made enough appearances in his football club. After all the criticisms, he is the only Ghanaian player who scored in the world cup friendly matches.
