Frank Assinki makes final squad for U20 AFCON:

Frank Assinki has made the final list for Ghana U20 national team as they depart to Mauritania for the 2021 CAF U20 African Cup of Nations.

The tournament is taking place from February 14- March 6, and Ghana’s Black Satellites are in Group C where they are pitched against Morocco, Tanzania and The Gambia.

Coach Karim Zito’s side will face off with Tanzania in their opening match on Tuesday February 16 before squaring off with Morocco and Gambia in subsequent group matches.

The Black Satellites qualified for the competition after reaching the final of the Wafu Zone B U20 Cup of Nations in Benin where they went on to beat Burkina Faso 2-1 in the final to win the trophy.

Ghana won the U20 AFCON in 1993, 1999 and 2009 where they went on to win the World Cup after beating Brazil in an epic penalty shoot-out in the final of the tournament staged in Egypt.
