Head coach of Ghana's U-17 team, the Black Starlets, Sellas Tetteh, has indicated that Ghana is in Korea to win the ultimate Cup and that any team that meet's his side was "calling for trouble".
"The way my boys are playing, any team that would meet us would suffer", he said, adding that the loss of 2-3 by Ghana to Germany was a wake up call for the team to correct its mistakes and that he was not surprised the team won their final group match.
Coach Tetteh said this at a press briefing after his side played a well determined game to defeat Colombia 2-1 to qualify for the next stage of the competition.
He said he has confidence in the players and that God would always help them to reach the finals to enable them lift the Cup for Ghana.
The coach however admitted that goal scoring was a major problem for his team but expressed the hope that the boys would improve game after game to reach the finals.
"Goal scoring sometimes is patience and I hope we would improve game after game and we would work on that", he said.
On their chances against South American side, Brazil the ever-smiling coach said, "No team is bigger and stronger than us in this tournament. We are in for success and we have to beat Brazil as well."
The Starlets defeated Colombia, another South American side 2-1 in Ulsan Sports Complex on Sunday to qualify to the round 16.
The Ghanaians would meet Brazil on Wednesday, August 29, while Colombia face Nigeria on the same day to determine who qualifies for the quarter-finals.
