Ghana U17 coach Fokuo reacts to friendly loss to Morocco

Ghana U17 coach Ben Fokuo is not perturbed by the losing outcome of Monday’s international friendly defeat to Morocco.

In the first of back-to-back fixtures in Rabat, the Black Starlets ended as the unfortunate side as they suffered a 2-1 loss, going 2-0 down early before halving the deficit after half-time.

Ghana have a prompt opportunity to make amends on Thursday when they clash with their Moroccan counterparts in the second game on Thursday.

“I think in the early stages of the game we were surprised by the Moroccans. The team is still young and we are still developing the players for the future,” Fokuo said after Monday’s game, as reported by the Ghana Football Association’s official website.
