Ghana to face Togo in Wafu on Tuesday

Published on: 10 May 2011

Ghana will play Togo at the Wafu Nations Cup on Tuesday to decide who finishes top of Group B of the depleted tournament.

Hosts Nigeria will have to wait till after today’s group rematch between Ghana and Togo to know their opponent in the semi-final of the sub-regional WAFU Nations Cup.

Nigeria’s home-based stars defeated Niger 4-0 on Saturday to qualify for Thursday’s semi-final match.

It was also a sweet revenge for the Nigerians, stopped from qualifying for 2011 Championship of African Nations (CHAN) by their northwest neighbours.

In Group B, Ghana, who are represented by the Olympic team, stopped Togo 2-1 in their first clash and will do battle again today to determine who will top the group as the two other teams due for this competition failed to turn up.

Nigerian coach, Samson Siasia, commended his players and singled out Batholomew Ibenegbu as the best player on parade against Niger Republic.
