Black Meteors coach Ibrahim Tanko has targeted win against Guinea in their last group game in a bid to secure qualification to the next stage of the U23 AFCON tournament in Morocco.

Ghana were humiliated 5-1 by the host nation on Tuesday night, reducing their prospects of reaching the semifinals.

The defeat has now pushed the Black Meteors down to the third position in Group A standings ahead of the final round of group games.

Having clinched victories in their first two matches, Morocco comfortably leads the group with an impressive 6 points. Trailing behind them is Guinea, who currently hold the second position with 3 points.

“I think both of us want to qualify to the next stage so I think both teams are going to prepare well to win the game. I can only talk about my team; I don’t know what the Guineans want but definitely we want to win to progress” he said at the post-match conference.

Ghana must now win at all costs against Guinea to advance to the next stage of the competition.

Failure to beat Guinea will mean the Black Meteors will exit the U23 AFCON at the Group Stage, missing out on qualification for the Olympic Games in the process.

The game between Ghana and Guinea is scheduled to be played on Friday, June 30.
