Ward & Amartey Begin International Action
- Leicester City goalkeeper Danny Ward plays 45 minutes in Wales’ UEFA Nations League loss to Poland
- He kept a first-half clean sheet before being substituted at half-time
- Daniel Amartey helped Ghana to a shutout in their 3-0 2023 CAF Africa Cup of Nations qualifying win over Madagascar
- The Black Stars are top of Group E after a victory in their opening match
Ward, 28, started against Poland at Stadion Miejski in Wroclaw as their 2022 UEFA Nations League Group A4 got underway.
The Leicester City shot-stopper played the opening 45 minutes, saving superbly midway through the first half to deny Robert Lewandowski, before being replaced by Wayne Hennesey.
After the interval, Jonny Williams broke the deadlock for the Welsh, however strikes from Jakub Kaminski and Karol Swiderski turned the game on its head as Poland emerged victorious.
Wales will next take on Ukraine in a huge match in Cardiff on Sunday, as both teams battle it out for a spot in this year's FIFA World Cup finals in Qatar.
Later in the evening, centre-back Daniel Amartey started from the off for Ghana, who took on Madagascar in 2023 CAF Africa Cup of Nations qualifying.
Following a goalless first half, Mohammed Kudus, Felix Afena-Gyan and Osman Bukari goals meant the Black Stars got their Group E qualification campaign off to a winning start in Cape Coast.
Amartey's Ghana will come up against Central Africa Republic in four days' time in their next AFCON qualification outing.
