Clearly disappointed, the musician jokingly wondered whether the team still deserved to be called the Black Stars due to their recent performances.

“Right now, should we call you people Galilee Stars or Black Stars?”

He asked, sparking laughter and reactions online.

Shatta reminded the team of Ghana's support

Shatta Wale also reminded the team that many public figures and well-meaning Ghanaians had shown support for them ahead of their recent games, including through financial donations.

According to him, the support was given in good faith because people wanted to see the team make the country proud on the pitch.

He said;

“The more you people are losing, the more I am also losing here. You think we just woke up and came to donate? We donated because we want you people to go and score.”
