Ghana's amputee football national team, the Black Challenge, have arrived in Mexico ahead of the 2026 WAFF Amputee Football World Cup, with the team determined to translate their dominance on the African continent into global success.

The Ghanaian side heads into the tournament with confidence and high expectations following a remarkable run of success in African amputee football, having established themselves as one of the continent's leading forces.

The Black Challenge have won three African Amputee Football Cup of Nations titles (2007, 2021 and 2024), alongside their triumph at the 2023 African Para Games in Accra.

Their latest continental achievements have further strengthened their belief that they can compete with the world's best and challenge for the ultimate prize in Mexico.

The team arrived in Guadalajara in the early hours of Thursday, November 12, following more than 20 hours of travel by road and air. The 15-man contingent travelled in two separate batches after splitting up in France before reuniting in Mexico.

Under head coach Stephen Richard Obeng, Ghana will compete in Group D alongside Angola, Colombia and Iraq in a tournament featuring 24 countries from four continents.

The group presents a stern examination of Ghana's ambitions, particularly against Angola, who are former world champions, having lifted the trophy in 2018 before finishing runners-up in 2022.

The Black Challenge will open their campaign against Angola on Saturday, November 14, before facing Colombia on November 15. Their final group fixture will be against Iraq on November 16.

Having conquered Africa, the Black Challenge are now eager to announce their arrival on the global stage and prove that their continental dominance can be replicated against the world's best.

Ghana's campaign in Mexico represents another opportunity to make history and inspire a nation through determination, resilience and sporting excellence.

With the African crown already secured, the mission is clear: conquer the world and bring the Amputee Football World Cup trophy home to Ghana.
