Black Satellites to face Cote D'Ivoire in WAFU B U-20 semi-finals

Ghana's Black Satellites are set to clash with Cote D'Ivoire in the semi-finals of the WAFU B U20 Championship on Saturday, October 26, 2024, following the conclusion of the group stage matches.

After topping Group A, coach Desmond Ofei's side will need to be at their best, as a victory against the Ivorians would not only secure a spot in the final but also guarantee qualification for the 2025 U20 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).

Nigeria, who topped Group B with a 2-1 win over Cote D'Ivoire, will face Niger in the other semi-final.

The WAFU B U20 Championship serves as a pathway to the 2025 U20 AFCON, which will also act as a qualifier for the 2025 FIFA U20 World Cup in Chile, with the top four teams securing spots.
