World Cup 2022: Colourful photos of Ghana fans celebrating Black Stars victory over South Korea

Published on: 29 November 2022

Following the Black Stars' thrilling 3-2 victory over South Korea in Group H of the World Cup, Ghanaian supporters were in full celebration mode.

On Monday, the Education City Stadium in Doha was filled with the deafening sounds of vuvuzelas, djemba drums, and blaring horns.

Many of the volunteers and security personnel in the stadium appeared to be delighted by the boisterous atmosphere after the game. Some fans danced, and others took selfies and pictures with anyone who requested them.

“Metro this way,” they sang together, impersonating a now famous and catchy phrase used by stadium security to direct spectators to the underground rail system.

“This was a tense game,” fan Chris Keyi, who is of Ghanaian origin but lives in New York, told Al Jazeera. “The last few minutes took maybe 10 years of my life.”

“People will be out everywhere in Ghana and wherever our people are in the world,” he said. “It’s a huge victory.”

Akwasi Baah-Frimpong, a Ghanaian fan who lives in Canada, said it was the most “nerve-wracking” match of his life.

“I’m just relieved we won,” he said. “In the last 10 minutes, I thought I was going to have a heart attack.”

He added that Ghana’s chances of qualifying were looking “really good”.

Ghana play their  final group game against Uruguay on Friday in a match that will help determine who advances to the World Cup knockout stage.
