Defending World champions Ghana failed to qualify for this year\u2019s Fifa World Cup in Colombia after exiting the African Youth Championship on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The Black Satellites drew 1-1 with leaders Cameroon in their final Group B match and could not advance to the semi-final stage, a qualification mark for the Fifa World Cup.<\/p>\n

Striker Kwame Nsor got the opener on 21 minutes when he fired home from inside the box but Mbongo equalized with an unmarked header in added on time. Ghana lost 2-1 to Nigeria in their opener; rallied to draw one-all with Gambia and ended the tournament with two points to finish third in the Group.<\/p>\n

The West Africans under Sellas Tetteh conquered Africa at the last championship in Rwanda and went to win the 2009 Fifa Under-20 World Cup in Egypt.<\/p>\n

The Satellites failure completes a quartet of disappointments for Ghana national team after the home-based national were humiliated in Sudan at the CHAN, the Under-23 team were knocked out Sudan in the London 2012 Olympics and the national women\u2019s team also crashed out from the London Olympics.<\/p>\n

Nigeria, Cameroon, Mali and Egypt will represent the continent at this year\u2019s World Cup to be held in Colombia.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
