Ghana have started to practice with the official World Cup ball, the 'Brazuca' even before the tournament starts in Brazil.
The Black Stars will face the United States, Germany and Portugal next month in Group G.
Kwesi Appiah's players, who have gathered in Arnhem, Holland since Sunday have been using the Official Match Ball for their preparations.
The brazuca’s colours and ribbon design of the ball panels symbolise the traditional multi-coloured wish bracelets worn in the country.
It has a new structural innovation, with a unique symmetry of six identical panels alongside a different surface structure will provide improved grip, touch, stability and aerodynamics on the pitch.
