WAFU B U17: ‘We won but I expected more from my boys’ – Kassim Ocansey
Ghana secured all three points in the Group A encounter, with David Kwarteng scoring the decisive goal on the 7th minute in the game. However, despite the victory, Ocansey believes his players could have been more clinical in front of goal after creating several scoring opportunities.
Ghana's U17 coach Kassim Ocansey expressed mixed sentiments following his team's 1-0 victory over Togo in the opening match of the 2026 WAFU Zone B U17 Championship. The goal, scored by David Kwarteng in the 7th minute, secured all three vital points for Ghana in Group A. However, Ocansey admitted that his players could have been more clinical in front of goal, as they created several scoring opportunities that they failed to convert.
Despite the victory, the Ghana coach remains confident in his team's attacking abilities, asserting that improved finishing could lead to more goals in their upcoming matches. Ocansey emphasized that if the team can successfully convert the chances they create, they have the potential to score three or four goals per game. As the Starlets aim to build on their opening-day triumph and maintain their winning momentum, Coach Ocansey will focus on addressing the team's shortcomings in front of goal as they prepare for their next assignment in the WAFU Zone B Championship. The Black Starlets will face Benin in their next match on Tuesday.
