What happened
Ghana's Black Stars hosted a World Cup qualifier in Accra and won it 2–0, both goals arriving in the second half after a goalless first. The result is confirmed by the official match record and by both federations, and it puts Ghana in control of their qualifying group.
One number from the night is still only a number that was announced: the stadium announcer put the attendance at over 38,000, and local radio reported it — but the official match report has not yet confirmed it. Until it does, the attendance stays labelled on this page, because announced figures and recorded figures are different things.

Why it matters
World Cup qualification shapes a football country's next four years — its funding, its fixtures and its mood. The result itself is settled and low-risk to publish against the official record; the colour around it, like attendance, waits for the written report like everything else on Vozia.
