Partey opened the scoring in the 10th minute, connecting perfectly with a well-placed free-kick from Jordan Ayew, per Modern Ghana.

The Arsenal midfielder rose above the Madagascar defense to power home a header, giving Ghana an early lead.

The duo combined again in the 53rd minute, with Ayew delivering a pinpoint corner that Partey expertly nodded past the goalkeeper for his second goal of the night.

Ghana's awesome third goal against Madagascar

However, the highlight of the match was Kudus’ goal, Ghana’s third of the evening.

Ayew displayed his experience, dancing around three opponents before sending a precise pass into the box.

In a video shared on social media, Kudus latched onto it with perfect timing, smashing the ball into the net in the 58th minute.

What made the goal even more spectacular was the build-up play, as Ghana completed an incredible 11-pass sequence before Kudus' finish.

The move exemplified Otto Addo’s tactical philosophy, with seamless passing and movement breaking down the opposition.

Against a Madagascar side desperate for a comeback, Ghana’s flawless execution reaffirmed their quality and strengthened their position at the top of the group.

The last match of matchday six will see Comoros host Chad on Tuesday, where a win for the home side would narrow the gap behind Ghana to just three points.

This victory marks Ghana’s fifth win in six World Cup qualifiers as they look to bounce back from their disappointing 2025 Africa Cup of Nations campaign.

Next up for the Black Stars is an away fixture against whipping boys, Chad, a side they walloped 5-0 in Accra, in September, as cited by Sofascore.

They will then host the Eagles of Mali four days after their encounter against Les Sao.
