Ghana beat their U20 counterparts from Nigeria to progress to the semi final of the WAFU tournament while Nigeria are on the verge of exiting the tournament.
After drawing 1-1 with Côte d’Ivoire in their opening game, the Nigerian team needed at least a draw to stay alive in the tournament but a late free kick ended their hope.
The wasteful Nigeria team will now hope on Ghana thrashing Ivory Coast by a higher margin for them to progress to the next round with Ivory Coast needing just a draw.
