Ghana’s National Men’s Under 20 National Football Team beat Central African Republic (C.A.R.) 1-0 in its final game to top the group.
Joseph Opoku’s brilliant solo run and finish in the 84th minute sealed the win for Ghana; Senegal beat D.R. Congo 2-0.
After beating Senegal 1-0 and drawing 1-1 with Democratic Republic of Congo (D.R. Congo), Ghana registered seven points.
Prior to the game, Ghana had booked its place in the quarterfinals thanks to having the head to head advantage over Senegal thanks to the slim win over the defending champions.
