EAGLETS BATTLE GHANA FOR U-17 AFCON TICKET.

Five-time world champions, the Golden Eaglets will tackle the Black Starlets of Ghana in the second semi-final of the ongoing WAFU-B U-17 Championship at the Stade Charles Konan Banny, Yamoussoukro, Ivory Coast, today.

A year after failing to reach the final of the last edition, which cost them a place at the 2025 U-17 AFCON and, by extension, the expanded FIFA U-17 World Cup, the team now face another stern test to make the showpiece.

The Golden Eaglets have been in good form in the tournament, scoring four goals and conceding only one, in the process amassing four points to top the three-team group B.
