The Black Satellites are gearing up for the WAFU B Under-20 Championship in style. They played two friendlies on Thursday, as part of their preparations, taking on Ghana Premier League side Legon Cities and winning 2-1, thanks to Jerry Afriyie’s double. The team also defeated SMAC Soccer Club 2-1, with Ali Umar and Yussif Musah scoring the goals. 

Coach Desmond Ofei is leaving no stone unturned as he intensifies preparations for the WAFU B Championship. The team’s ultimate goal is to make a return to the U-20 Cup of Nations, a feat they last achieved in 2021 in Mauritania. 

The Black Satellites have been on a roll, having won the 2023 African Games men’s tournament by defeating Uganda at the Accra Sports Stadium. With momentum on their side, they’re poised to make a strong showing in the WAFU B Championship.

As the technical team finalizes their squad selection, the players are surely feeling the pressure to perform. The competition for spots will be fierce, but it’s exactly what the team needs to stay motivated and focused on their objective.

The WAFU U-20 Championship is scheduled to take place in Togo from October 17 to 31, 2024.
