Ghana to face South Sudan in African U17 Championship qualifier

Ghana’s U17 will meet South Sudan in the second qualifying round of the 2015 African Junior Championship next month.

South Sudan advanced to meet the Black Starlets following Kenya’s withdrawal from their first round contest.

Starlets coach Paa Kwesi Fabin and his players are expected in Juba for the first leg scheduled for the weekend of 18-20 July.

The return leg will be played in Accra in August.

If Ghana advance, they will face either Burkina Faso or Cameroon in the final qualifier.

The 2015 African U-17 Championship will be hosted by Niger from 15 February to 01 March, 2015.
