Ghana have secured qualification to this year’s FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup after a 19-0 aggregate victory over Djibouti in the second round of African zone qualifying on Sunday.

Ghana had all but secured their qualification heading into the second leg after a 9-0 first-leg victory, and they were able to better that performance by one goal and stroll to qualification for Uruguay 2018.
