Disgraced Ghana U20 coach Orlando Wellington has found time to tip Cameroon to lift the 2011 Africa Youth Championship in South Africa.

The Berekum Chelsea boss has come in for the flak from Ghana soccer fans for the Black Satellites woeful showing at the tournament.

Ghana meekly surrendered the Africa and world titles after failing to win a match at the U20 tournament.

But the Ghana coach has found time to tip the Young Lions saying they have the best crop of talented players to ink the title.

“I will say Cameroon can win the championship because they have the best players and they play like a compact team and won’t be surprise if they win,” Wellington said.

“The self belief is there and they look very motivated in the competition and it was sad we conceded that last minute goal but that’s part of the game.”

Cameroon scored an injury time goal to draw 1-1 with the reigning World Champions in the final group B match on Sunday to top the group unbeaten and Wellington has tipped them to end on a high in South Africa.
