Black Satellites aim for semi-final spot in WAFU U-20 Championship

Ghana will face hosts Togo in their final Group A match of the WAFU U-20 Championship on Wednesday, October 23, 2024.

The Black Satellites, who top Group A with four points from two games, are set for a crucial showdown as both teams battle for a place in the semi-finals.

Coach Desmond Ofei will count on the attacking duo of Jerry Afriyie and Aziz Musibau to lead the charge in this tricky contest.

Togo, currently tied with Benin at two points each, are coming off a goalless draw with Benin in their last match.

Ghana needs just a draw to secure their spot in the competition’s semi-finals, which serves as the qualification pathway to the 2025 Africa U20 Cup of Nations.

The finalists from the WAFU B U20 Championship will advance to the 2025 AFCON, where they can also qualify for the FIFA U20 World Cup in Chile.

The stakes are high as the young Black Satellites push for regional and international success.
