Ghana’s Black Stars Hold England to Draw in Boston

Ghana produced another disciplined display at the 2026 FIFA World Cup on June 23, 2026, frustrating England to a goalless draw in Boston. The result left both teams on four points in Group L, with qualification still to be decided after the other matchday two fixture between Croatia and Panama.

After edging Panama 1-0 in their opening match, the Black Stars arrived in Boston as underdogs against an England side that had previously defeated Croatia 4-2. Despite being perceived as the weaker team, Ghana managed to showcase a robust defensive performance that thwarted the English attack. This draw moved them closer to the knockout stage, raising hopes for Ghana as they seek to advance in the tournament.
