SAN FRANCISCO, December 10, (THEWILL) – Flying Eagles coach, Ladan Bosso, has reacted to the defeat of Flying Eagles to Ghana, saying wastefulness of his team in front of goal led to their defeat to their West African counterpart in their last Group B game of the 2021 U-20 AFCON qualifiers in Porto Novo, Benin Republic on Wednesday.
A free-kick conceded by the Flying Eagles with just eight minutes left to play secured a 1-0 win for Ghana.
As things stand, the Flying Eagles will have to pray for Ghana to secure a big win against Cote d’Ivoire to get a chance of qualifying for the semi-finals of the WAFU B Zonal qualifiers.
Reacting to the defeat, Bosso, while speaking with Brila FM, said: “What we played against Ghana was better than what we played in the first match (against Cote d’Ivoire) but unfortunately this time around we were very wasteful.
“We had chances that would have finished this game since the first half but we couldn’t do that. We were very wasteful and that was what cost us this match.
“They had only one chance and they got it, we had three freekicks of our own but didn’t do anything with it.”
THEWILL reports that the WAFU B Zonal tournament is the qualifiers for next year’s U-20 AFCON in Mauritania.
