WAFU B U-17: We’re ready for Nigeria test – Starlets coach
Black Starlets coach Dr Prosper Narteh Ogum says his side will improve on their mistakes ahead of their clash with Nigeria in the ongoing WAFU B U-17 Championship.
Ghana will face their West African rivals in the semifinals for a place in the tournament final at the Charles Konan Banny Stadium in Yamoussoukro, with kick-off scheduled for 19:00 GMT.
A place in the final will guarantee the Black Starlets a spot in the U-17 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), which will be hosted in Morocco next year.
Speaking to the media ahead of the game, Dr. Ogum said his side is ready for the test against Nigeria.
“We feel good. Everyone is okay, the common spirit of the team is very high, the boys are confident, and each of them is ready to get the results to book a place for the AFCON in Morocco,” he said.
The former Asante Kotoko trainer also said his side would improve their performance against Nigeria.
“Regarding the errors we committed in our previous games, we have identified them through video sessions and worked on them, so we expect an improvement in the defensive shape that you saw in our previous games,” he added.
