WAFU B Final: Flying Eagles Battle High-Flying Ivorians

Tomorrow, the Flying Eagles will aim to confirm they are the best U20 team in WAFU B when they take on high-flying Cote d’Ivoire in the final of the sub-regional cup in Ghana.

The Flying Eagles stopped Niger after penalty shootout to qualify for the championship game, while the Ivorians beat hosts Ghana 2-1 to advance to the final.

The Ivorians have been very impressive at this tournament after they won all three group games before they eliminated the host nation in the semifinal.

They will now seek to avenge their loss to the Nigerians in October in the WAFU B U20 AFCON qualifiers in Togo.
