Ghana U20 recorded a narrow 3-2 win over lower-tier side, Golden Boots on Saturday at the Accra Sports Stadium as part of their pre-tournament warm-up friendlies .
Liberty Professionals danger man Ebenezer Assifuah got on the score-sheet after Francis’s opener in the first-half to record a 2-1 lead over a strong opposition who were determined to hand Sellas Tetteh’s boys their first significant defeat.
But Atletico Madrid youngster Thomas Partey unmasked the opposition’s defence with a powerful header from a cross mid-way through the second half to end their ambition.
New arrivals Daniel Pappoe Mills – the Chelsea reserves captain and Arsenal’s Zak Ansah all had a feel of competitive action with the team as Sellas Tetteh continues to devised means to trim down the squad before they leave for Europe for the final preparations.
The arrival of Inter Milan midfield talisman Alfred Duncan will soar the number of foreign-based players to six with Baba Rahman and Richmond Boakye-Yiadom to join later after helping the Black Stars with the upcoming World Cup qualifiers.
Sellas is widely expected to keep all eight foreign-based players available for the tournament while thirteen places will be up for grasp by the locals.
Asante Kotoko goalkeeper Felix Annan is still undergoing trials in Belgium and is expected to fly down to join the squad.
