Ghana faces toughest test so far against Morocco
Ghana coach Maxwell Konadu has warned his Black
Satellites team that this Sunday's clash against
Morocco will be the toughest test so far.

The men's U-20 team host their North African
opponents in the first leg of the final-round
qualifier for the 2013 African Youth Championship
at the Tamale Stadium.

Konadu, who hopes his side can push for a good
first leg win to improve their chances of reaching
next year's finals has cautioned his team against
looking beyond Sunday's match.

"This will be our toughest task so far," Konadu
said ahead of the game.

"We need to be relaxed but be filled with the
determination needed to win such a game. We must
get a good home result."

The Ghana coach fully expects his side to claim a
win in Tamale and continue their great work
towards qualifying as the aggregate winner over
both legs will qualify for next year's
Championship in Algeria.

"I'm confident we'll keep up the good work on
Sunday. We have to impose ourselves on the game
against Morocco, create chances and not be in a
rush but finish off well," he explained.

Seven teams will make it from the qualifiers and
join hosts, Algeria, in the finals next year.
