U17 Africa Championship: Ghana qualify despite 4-1 loss to Burkina Faso

The Black Starlets of Ghana secured a ticket to the 2017 U17 Africa Championship following a 4-1 defeat to the Young Stallions of Burkina Faso.

Ghana scaled through to fetch the ticket for the event following the 5-1 first leg spanking of the Burkinabes a week ago in Cape Coast.

The Black Starlets have then qualified on a 6-5 aggregate.

Paa Kwesi Fabin's boys ended the first half in a 1-1 stalemate but the Burkinabes returned stronger in the second half to score three more goals.
