FIFA U-20 World Cup: Ghana qualifies for Round of 16 as group winners


The Black Satellites of Ghana, are through to the quarter-finals of the ongoing FIFA U-20 World Cup, thanks to a 1-0 victory over Panama on Friday.

Emmanuel Boateng came off the bench to smash in the winning goal with nine minutes of play left.

The Rio Ave player pounced on a slip by Francisco Narbon and was free on goal, before finishing off past goalkeeper Jaime de Gracia.

It could have ended in a draw however, but defender Fidel Escobar missed from the spot in stoppage time, after Patrick Asmah fouled him.

Ghana will now face the third best placed team to emerge from Group A, C or D on Wednesday.
