Ghana said Tuesday they have dismissed coach Otto Addo,
hours after a friendly defeat to Germany and just over 70 days until the World
Cup.
The Black Stars were beaten 2-1 in Stuttgart on Monday, the
hosts needing a last-gasp Deniz Undav goal to save their blushes.
It was a fourth defeat in a row for Addo's side, who were
thrashed 5-1 by Austria last week.
"The association wishes to thank Otto Addo sincerely
for his contribution to the team and wishes him the best of luck in his future
endeavours," the Ghana Football Association (GFA) said.
It will "communicate the new technical direction of the
Black Stars in due course".
Ghana are grouped with England, Croatia and Panama at the
World Cup in North America this summer.
