In terms of actual competition, Ghana looked strong throughout their recent Africa Cup of Nations qualification campaign, as they won Group F with a perfect 6-0-0 record.
The Black Stars have lost their last two games in a row, both international friendly matches against Mexico and the United States.
With the game in view, Hughton has recognized his side’s next World Cup qualifiers as an opportunity to grow and hopes that the Black Stars learn from prior mistakes.
