Thomas Partey led the Black Stars as captain in the first leg of the World Cup play-off in Kumasi at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium.

He played the entire game as the Black Stars were held at home to a goalless draw by the Super Eagles. Ghana travels to Abuja on Sunday for the second leg of the game on Tuesday at the Mashood Abiola stadium.

How Thomas Partey and his teammates fared against Nigeria

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that Ghana and Nigeria will have another 90 minutes to decide which team qualifies for the World Cup after a pulsating goalless draw in the first leg of the play-offs in Kumasi.

Nigeria gave Ghana a scare when the referee whistled for penalty in the second half only for VAR to reverse the decision.

Ghana got off to a good start and nearly took the lead when teenager Abdul Fatawu Issahaku pulled a great save from Nigeria goalkeeper Francis Uzoho.

Ghana has been handed a major injury boost ahead of the second instalment of the FIFA World Cup play-offs.

The much-anticipated first-leg of the West African derby rechristened the 'Jollof Derby' was staged at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium last night.

In an enthralling fixture between the two sworn rivals, the Black Stars and the Super Eagles proved inseparable as they played out a goalless draw.
