Black Stars head coach Carlos Queiroz has made three changes to his starting lineup for Ghana’s crucial Round of 32 clash against Colombia at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Lawrence Ati-Zigi returns in goal, while Caleb Yirenkyi, Inaki Williams and Jerome Opoku are all restored to the starting XI following the 2-1 defeat to Croatia in the final Group L match.

The trio replace Benjamin Asare, Kamaldeen Sulemana and Derrick Luckassen, with Jonas Adjetey also dropping to the bench as Queiroz reshuffles his side for the knockout encounter.

Ghana will line up with Ati-Zigi in goal behind a back four of Marvin Senaya, Derrick Luckassen, Jerome Opoku and Gideon Mensah. Thomas Partey, Kwasi Sibo and Caleb Yirenkyi will operate in midfield.

In attack, Inaki Williams and Antoine Semenyo will provide support for captain Jordan Ayew as the Black Stars chase a place in the Round of 16.

The winner of the clash at Arrowhead Stadium will progress to face Switzerland in the Round of 16 after the Europeans defeated Algeria 2-0 in their Round of 32 fixture.
