Ghana U-20 caoch Karim Zito ‘impressed’ by level of preparations ahead of WAFU Cup

Ghana U20 coach Abdul Karim Zito says he is impressed by his team’s preparations ahead of the WAFU Zone B U-20 Cup of Nations next month in Togo.

The team which has been in camp for the past two months is expected to leave the country in the coming weeks for the competition.

The upcoming tournament will serve as qualifiers for the Africa Youth Championship next year, and Ghana is poised to pick the slot from WAFU Zone B.

“So far so good. What we are doing as a technical team is to raise their conditioning and, we have been impressed with what we have seen so far”, Coach Zito said.

“We expect the WAFU tournament to be tough but, Ghana is also a top team to play against at this level and, we intend to go to Togo to prove that”, he added.

The Black Satellites defeated Karela United in a friendly last Sunday as part of preparations for next month’s tourney.
