Catch Ghana vs Colombia live: time, channel & odds

Ghana will meet Colombia in the Round of 32 on Friday, July 3, 2026, with kickoff set for 9:30 p.m. ET at Kansas City Stadium. The Black Stars arrive with four points from Group L, hoping to turn a shaky start into a knockout‑stage breakthrough.

How can fans watch the match?

The game will be broadcast on FOX in the United States. Viewers can also stream it free for three days on FOX One or FOX Sports. International fans should check local listings, but the official FOX feed provides the most reliable picture and commentary.

Who are the key players for Ghana?

Caleb Yirenkyi and Derrick Luckassen each netted a goal during the group stage, making them the Black Stars’ primary threats. Midfielder Kofi Agyekum (who anchored the midfield against England) will look to dictate tempo, while goalkeeper Samuel Mensah aims to keep a clean sheet against Colombia’s attack.

What does recent form mean for Ghana's chances?

Ghana’s recent form is far from ideal – the last five matches read 1W‑0D‑4L (LLLLW, most recent first). The team’s sole win came against Panama, and they have lost the last four fixtures. By contrast, Colombia topped Group K with a 2‑1‑0 record.

The stark contrast highlights the challenge Ghana faces, but knockout football often produces surprises. A disciplined defensive setup could frustrate Colombia’s forward line, especially if the Black Stars exploit set‑piece opportunities.

What’s the broader impact of this tie?

A win would propel Ghana into the quarter‑finals, reviving hopes of a deep run and boosting national morale. It would also improve the team’s FIFA ranking ahead of the next cycle. Conversely, a loss ends their campaign but still offers valuable experience for a squad that will likely feature in future tournaments.

And the stakes are high: every goal, every tackle, every save could shape the narrative of Ghana’s World Cup journey.
