The Golden Eaglets recorded their second win at the ongoing WAFU B U-17 tournament in Ghana, after defeating Togo 3-1 in their second Group A game on Tuesday.
The win means the Golden Eaglets finish top of their group and have qualified for the semi-final.
Goals from Kevwe Iyede, Precious Williams and Substitute Fortune Aleki, help the coach Nduka Ugbade-led side record their second win of the tournament while Komi Ahouankpo got Togo’s goal.
Iyede opened the scoring in the 11th minute before Williams made it 2-0 on 24 minutes.
With 15 minutes left Ahouankpo pulled a goal back to bring the score to 2-1 but Aleki restored the Eaglets’ two-goal lead by making it 3-1.
Ghana and Togo will now meet on Thursday, 17 June, to decide who will join the Eaglets in the semi-finals.
The two teams that make it to the final of this year’s WAFU B regional tournament, will qualify for the 2023 U-17 AFCON in Algeria.
