Ghana has maintained a hundred percent record in the on-going Wafu Cup tournament after beating the Gambian today in the final Group B game.

The Black Satellites beat familiar rivals; the Young Scorpions 1-0, a result which sees Ghana stay at the summit of the four-team table with 9 points.

Dominic Adiyah scored the only goal of the game to hand Ghana the much needed win. And that was Adiyah’s second goal of the tourney after scoring in the first game against Senegal.

Ghana, even before the game had secured a place in the quarter-finals of the Wafu Cup after beating Guinea in the second group game of the sub-regional tournament. The Black Satellites won that game 2-1.

The Black Satellites would now play in the next round of the competition which is the quarter-finals on Saturday.

The first two clubs from each group after the round-robin will progress to the quarterfinals, with the winners advancing to the semi final stage.

The Wafu competition comprises 16 teams, out of which eight will advance to the quarter-finals.
