The Black Starlets claimed an impressive 2-0 victory over Morocco's U-17 team in the opening of two international friendly matches played at King Mohammed VI Football Complex in Rabat. Ghana scored the opening goal in the 24th minute when Hope Agbasi capitalized on a cross from Yaw Acheampong. The team maintained their lead and came close to adding a second goal twice.
However, the Moroccan goalkeeper managed to thwart Alidu Issah and Yaw Acheampong's efforts to double the lead. The Starlets took the lead in the second half just minutes after the restart when Alidu Issah confidently converted a penalty after Yaw Acheampong was fouled. This victory provides a positive start for Coach Kassim Mingle and his team as they prepare for the WAFU Zone B U17 Championship, which will act as the qualifying tournament for the 2027 U17 Africa Cup of Nations. They are set to face Morocco again at the King Mohammed VI Football Complex on Wednesday.
