About this listen

 The Black Stars is a six-part documentary podcast that asks this question, diving deep into the history, struggles and occasional glories of Ghana’s national football team. From the highs of its 1960s African Cup of Nations triumphs and the nation’s unforgettable first World Cup in 2006, to the crushing lows of political interference, corruption, mismanagement and near-misses on the world stage, the series lays bare the contradictions at the heart of Ghanaian football. Told through the voices of players, presidents, coaches, scouts, journalists and fans, this is the story of football as Ghana’s greatest source of pride and its most painful heartbreak. A tale of brilliance and squandered promise, of unity and betrayal – and of a nation still striving for the ultimate redemption on football’s biggest stage.
