Ghana’s Black Satellites settled for a 1-1 draw against Burkina Faso in their second Group B match at the 2026 WAFU B U-20 Championship in Yamoussoukro, Côte d’Ivoire, on Thursday.
Following their opening-day loss against Nigeria, they were looking to bounce back, and the Burkinabe game was the perfect opportunity to make their mark.
Joseph Badu’s all-important equaliser gave the Ghanaians an opportunity to dream of qualification in its final game.
The result leaves Ghana third in Group B with one point from two matches, setting up a decisive final group encounter against Togo.
The Black Satellites look to finish the tournament on a positive note and build momentum ahead of future competitions.
