The Ghana Football Association has issued a statement regarding the Black Stars' participation in the Qatar 2022 World Cup.
The four-time African champions fell short of their goal of reaching the semi-finals, exiting at the group stage after two defeats and a win.
Ghana lost their opening game to Portugal, beat South Korea last Monday and then fell to Uruguay on Friday to crash out of the tournament.
"The Ghana Football Association is extremely grateful to the government, the Ghanaian people, the football family, corporate Ghana, our esteemed sponsors and supporters for their unflinching, unwavering and unalloyed support during the Black Stars FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 campaign," the statement read.
"We regret our inability to progress to the knockout phase of the competition and offer our profound apologies to the government, the people of Ghana and all stakeholders across the globe.
"We believe that valuable lessons have been learnt from our qualification and participation in the tournament and aim to continue with the positives going into the future.
"The Ghana Football Association would in due course inform all stakeholders about any further developments concerning the Black Stars.

Well said but we remain disappointed. Yesterday was a day the whole of Ghana was up in 'arms' against Uruguay. Unfortunately our boys entered the pitch as if there was nothing at stake. True to the saying of Liuz Suarez that Ghana's defence was leaking , it came true. All the 2 goals were as a result of defensive lapses. All the same let's maintain this particular team and see their output in the next African cup of nations. The insults, redicule, blame game must cease. If care is not taken a time will come when Ghanaian footballers will decline invitation to play for the national team because of our utterances when they fail to go far in tournaments such as the CAN and World Cup. You don't throw a baby together with the bath water. When your hands touches human excreta you wash it you don't cut your hands. Even big time football nations such as Germany have been booted out.
