Ghana Under-17 team head coach Frimpong Manso is refusing to be drawn on reports that his side lost to an over-aged Zambia team in Sunday's African Championship penultimate qualifying round.
The Black Starlets lost 2-1 in Lusaka in the first leg and the local media are claiming the Ghana Football Association are considering protesting the ages of the Junior Chipolopolo.
Manso, an Ex-Ghana defender, is focused on overturning the one-goal deficit and not unsubstantiated reports on age-cheating.
"I don't want to be drawn into such reports because as far as Iââ¬â¢m concerned there is no iota of truth in that matter," Manso said.
"We should accept the result and stop these unnecessary reports. In any case how do you determine someoneââ¬â¢s age. We should rater concentrate on winning the second leg tie rather than talk about these baseless accusations," he fumed
"Getting a 2-1 score line away is not bad at all and we believe we can turn the game around in two weeks time."
The 2011 African Under-17 Championship will be hosted by Rwanda.
