CAF U-20 Cup of Nations: Coach Zito thrilled with Morocco stalemate in Group C

Ghana coach Abdul Karim Zito believes Friday's top-of-the-clash against Morocco at the 2021 CAF U20 Cup of Nations met expectations.

The two sides played out a 0-0 draw in Nouadhibou in a result that was overshadowed by a late injury to Black Satellites substitute Sampson Agyapong.

Ghana stayed on top of Group C with four points - just like Morocco-but has a superior goal difference.

"This was an interesting match because Morocco against Ghana is never a joke and today we manifested that," Zito said in his post-match speech.

"We all wanted to qualify to the quarter-finals of the tournament and today was a match of equals."

"Four points for now with a game to spare is good for Ghana because it is suiting us to make the knockout stage."
