Black Starlets coach Laryea Kingston is calling on Ghanaians to relish the team's remarkable 5-1 victory over Ivory Coast in the inaugural match of the WAFU B U17 Cup of Nations.
The resounding win for the Ghana U17 squad was cemented with goals from Joseph Narbi (2), Godfred Sarpong, Harve Gbafa, and Mark Kagawa Mensah.
In a post-game interview, Coach Kingston recognized the formidable challenge presented by the Ivorian team, noting their caliber.
Despite the decisive win, he pointed out the struggles his team encountered during the game.
"It's a cause for celebration. We must take pleasure in it. The game was challenging. The Ivorians are a tough team. They complicated things for us. It was hard to control the game due to their playing style. I'm thrilled. Now it's time for Ghanaians to celebrate because it's a significant win against a strong team," Coach Laryea Kingston commented.
Following this win, the Black Starlets' attention shifts to their next match against Benin in the WAFU B U17 Cup of Nations.
This victory puts Ghana on the right path in their endeavor to make a comeback to the U17 Africa Cup of Nations, an event they haven't participated in since 2017.
