What Arsenal's Thomas Partey did before Cristiano Ronaldo World Cup test amid Portugal vs Ghana

Arsenal star Thomas Partey will face a huge test in Ghana's World Cup opening match as they take on Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal.

Partey has been a key player for the Gunners throughout the 2022/23 campaign so far this season and his new role in midfield has allowed Granit Xhaka to become more influential. The Ghana international is one of the Black Stars' best players and will be vital to any success Ghana have at the World Cup in Qatar as they aim to qualify from Group H.

Ghana feature in one of the toughest groups at the tournament, being drawn alongside Portugal, Uruguay and South Korea. Ahead of the tournament in Qatar, Partey faced Xhaka's Switzerland side as the two countries prepared for the World Cup with the Swiss getting off to the perfect start after beating Cameroon earlier today.
