Changwon (SK), Sept. 2, GNA - The most valuable thing in Ghana's camp at the ongoing FIFA U-17 World Cup is the high demand of Ghanaian flags by Korean fans as souvenir to cheer the Starlets.

The Korean fans who thronged the Changwon Sports Complex to support the Black Starlets chased the Ghanaians soon after the Ghana - Peru match asking for the Ghanaian flags.

Those who had the miniature Ghana flags waved at the victorious players and officials as their vehicle left the stadium while others teased their colleagues by waving the flag in their faces for not having any flag. Some of the fans rushed to the Ghanaian journalists and begged for flags, which they said was attractive to them and want to keep as a souvenir and to use in supporting Ghana in their remaining matches The fans defied the down pour and traced the team to their

hotel to demand more flags.

There is massive support and goodwill for Ghana's team in almost all parts of Korea, which has become a moral booster to the Starlets and which would spur them on to surely lift the cup for the third time. 02 Sept. 07
