We were very wasteful - Bosso rues Nigeria wastefulness in Ghana defeat

Shina Oludare 12:06 GMT 10/12/2020 The Flying Eagles had plenty of chances to win Wednesday’s game, but a lack of precision in front of goal cost them dearly Nigeria U20’s 1-0 defeat to Ghana U20 in Wednesday’s Wafu U20 Zone B encounter was caused by wastefulness, according to coach Ladan Bosso. After a stuttering 1-1 draw against Cote d’Ivoire in the regional competition’s opening game, the Flying Eagles needed to defeat the Black Satellites to brighten their chances of reaching the semi-finals. However, the two-time Fifa U20 World Cup runners-up were pegged down at the Charles De Gaulle Stadium by Precious Boah’s beautiful free-kick that was unstoppable by goalkeeper Kolawole Oladipo.

Fofana Datro, who was a torn in the flesh of the Ghanaian backline, won a free-kick very close to the 18-yeard box on the hour mark, and Issouf Dosso curved the ensuing kick past goalkeeper Ibrahim Danlad. That result saw Nigeria bow out of the competition having finished third in Group B with just one point from two games, while the Black Satellites finished as runners-up with three points from the same number of games. With four points, the Ivorians won the group and will now face Burkina Faso in the last four. Elsewhere, Zito’s team will try Niger Republic for size for a place in the final.
