Joseph Langabel has shockingly revealed how the Black Satellites of Ghana won the U-20 Fifa World Cup in Egypt in 2009.<\/p>\n
The Ghana U-20 team, after a shaky start to the tournament, played Brazil in the final and won on penalty shootouts to\u00a0become the first-ever African country to win the U-20 FIFA World Cup in Egypt.<\/p>\n
Speaking on Accra based Peace FM<\/strong><\/em>, Mr Langabel, who was the chief drummer, revealed that he and another member named Zacoco had to undertake spiritual directions on behalf of the team.<\/p>\n According to him, the direction was to gift seven mentally-challenged people (six men, one woman) food and money termed as \u2018Salakah\u2019 before the game.<\/p>\n \u201cTo find these mad people, Zacoco and I will have to search the entire city of Cairo. We set off on our trek and gave money and bread to every man we encountered. We were left with one female insane person after a long search. We looked and looked and looked,\u201d Mr Langabel, who is an Accra Great Olympics supporter, said.<\/p>\n \u201cSo we gave the woman money and bread. Zacoco knows Arabic so he always spoke to them in Arabic before we gave them the bread and money and then we were set.\u201d<\/p>\n He further recounted that the late\u00a0Jordan Anagblah, who was a management committee member of the team, instructed them to perform another sacrifice that he believed won the trophy for Ghana.<\/p>\n \u201cWhen we got back to the hostel then we called Jordan and he asked us if we were set and we said yes and he said there is another sacrifice we need to make but for that, I won\u2019t say it here. We did so many things I can\u2019t say here. So we did all that and the man that\u2019s Jordan Anagblah\u2019s father who was blind told us that we will take the trophy.\u201d<\/p>\n READ ALSO<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cHe said we will win the match but it will be difficult for us and he added that there will be two red cards in the match. Everything happened and by the grace of God we took the cup so when Aziz says there is something in football that\u2019s true,\u201d he narrated.<\/p>\n During the final game, the\u00a0Black Satellites went down by one man in the first half after Daniel Addo was sent off in the 37th minute.<\/p>\n Sellas Tetteh\u2019s men fought through to push the game all the way to penalty shootout after a match that went 120 minutes saw no goal.<\/p>\n Ghana won the shootout 4-3 with former\u00a0Black Stars\u00a0midfielder, Emmanuel Agyemang Badu, scoring the winning penalty.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n![\"Joseph](\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/DlSZcVeVsAAclPA-e1535036886874.jpg\")
