Accra, Oct. 20. GNA –
Burkina Faso has qualified at the expense of Ghana for the upcoming 2020
African Nations Championships (CHAN)
scheduled for Cameroon.
Burkina, who came to
Ghana a fortnight ago to inflict a painful 1:0 on the Stars in Kumasi held on
to that slim goal as both countries played a goalless draw game in Ougadugo in
the return leg.
Ghana has once again
failed to secure a place in the CHAN championship, an event reserved for only
players plying their trade locally in their respective countries, as this
becomes the second time in a row for head coach Maxwell Konadu.
With almost the same
team that finished second at the just ended West African Football
Championship (WAFU) , a lot was being
expected from them as they beat the Stallions of Burkina Faso to make up a
final with host country Senegal, but was held in check by the determined
Burkinabes.
