The game is expected to be staged in Washington on October 12, 2024, at the state-of-the-art Audi Field in Washington, D.C.

The Porcupine Warriors are representing the West African country in the game after beating their rivals, Hearts of Oak in the maiden edition of the Democracy Cup.

This annual ceremonial match is organized by the Ghana Tourism Authority (GTA) in collaboration with the GFA and is part of the festivities marking Ghana Week DC 2024, which runs from October 7-12, 2024.

The clash between these historic teams aims to amplify the celebration of Ghanaian culture in Washington, D.C.

Before their trip to the USA, the Porcupine Warriors will face Accra Lions in a Matchday five encounter at the Obuasi Len Clay Stadium on Sunday, October 6.
