>>
>>shock news for Ghana:
>>in the prestigious U17 Afrcan championships which serve also as qualifiers
>>for the U17 World Championships Ghana has been knocked out in an early

>>knock out round by Gambia!  The tiny West Affrican state's selection had

>>the first leg at home 1:0 and achieved a 1:1 draw Saturday at Ghana. What
>>sounds like a joke has been reported by CAF-online and the Panafrican News
>>Agency. Ghana had been the most successful nation of the world at this

>>along with Nigeria and Brazil. The Nigerians escaped a similar scenario
>>when
>>they made up a 0:2 deficit from the first leg at Senegal by beating their
>>opponents at home 3:0.
>>South Africa, scared by a 1:2 loss in the first leg at little Equatorial
>>Guinea, were helped by their opponents: they did not arrive at the stadium
