Black Starlets head coach Laryea Kingston says player selection for the Wafu B Under 17 Championship was based on the generally accepted style of play by the Ghana Football Association.
The gaffer announced his squad for the competition on Tuesday ahead of the their opener on Wednesday against Cote d’Ivoire.
“We were very careful in selecting players because of the style the GFA (DNA) “Agoro style” has put up which is the major signature that is motivating us as a technical team,” Coach Laryea Kingston said as quoted on the website of the Ghana FA.
He continued, ‘’The technical team wants to dominate play, we want to have transitions in our play but we don’t want to forget the GFA DNA has put up and adding the philosophy of the technical team, it is working perfectly for the team.”
Laryea has expressed his team’s readiness and desireto win the WAFU Zone B U17 Championship to secure qualification for Ghana to the TotalEnergies U17 Africa Cup of Nations tournament.
The WAFU Zone B U17 Champions will commence in Ghana on Wednesday, May 15 at the University Of Ghana Sports Stadium.
