Very painful. They could have played one more match to decide the improved side . This tossing or lottery is vey cheap and unfair. Good luck on their playoff with Uganda.

Ghana Web please the Ghana Under 17 team has not been eliminated. They will rather play in a playoff qualify against Uganda to determine who qualifies to the quarter finals. Please fact check.

It appears something is missing here by saying Ghana is eliminated from the tournament if they still stand the chance to play in Qatar in the World Cup being the ultimate aim for this AFCON competition. I don't think an eliminated team can qualify to play in the World Cup. Ghanaweb, can a better clarification be done keep us well posted , please?

This team is not well coached . They’re talented but they are not a good team. They’re not mentally group . They’re not resilient. How can you lose a 2 goal advantage to Algeria. Algeria to me were the weakest in the group based on their style and their level of talent . Then they lost against a 10 man Senegal. The team is not disciplined and the coaching is poor. That Narteh Ogum despite all his experience seems to be out of his depth . Another youth team gets eliminated out of a tournament. Meaning that in Kurt Okraku tenure Ghana youth football is completely destroyed or nonexistent. They keeping failing and failing and continue to be in office . Only in Ghana we’re tolerant of mediocrity. If it continues this way losing will become normal and the reputation that was earbed years ago and blood and sweat is going down the gutter and nobody cares to stop it
