Match Report: Black Stars B 3-1 Tema Youth

Three goals in the second half, each from Eric Owusu, Stephen Sarfo and Thomas Abbey cancelled the first half lead by the Tema-based to give the Black Stars B comfortable win.

Tema Youth broke the virginity of the game in the 25th minute when goalkeeper Stephen Kwaku failed to grab a powerful drive from midfielder James Akaminko.

Stephen Sarfo increased the tally for the Black Stars B when he intelligently curled the ball to the top right corner of the Tema Youth post.

Just as the game appeared ending with the 2-1 score line, in-form Hearts of Oak skipper Thomas Abbey took on three defenders on the left flank, sent them inside out and speedily slotted the ball with an excellent volley to complete a 3-1 lashing of the harbor boys.

The game forms part of preparations ahead of the side’s CHAN Qualifier with the Local Stallions o Burkina Faso.
