Ghana’s Black Satellites take on Central African Republic (CAR) on Thursday, May 8, 2025, in their final Group B match at the ongoing U-20 Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt.
The game kicks off at 3:00 PM GMT and, while Ghana have already secured qualification to the quarterfinals, a win today would see them cement top spot in the group.
This will be the first-ever U-20 AFCON meeting between Ghana and CAR, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the encounter.
Desmond Ofei’s side head into the match brimming with confidence after a statement 1-0 win over defending champions Senegal in their second group outing.
That victory followed a 1-1 draw against DR Congo in their opening game, meaning Ghana remain unbeaten in the tournament.
For CAR, it’s been a difficult campaign. They are winless in their last five competitive matches, with three losses and two draws, including a hard-fought stalemate against Senegal earlier in the group.
Ghana are expected to make a few changes to the lineup, having already sealed a place in the knockout stage, but the focus remains on finishing strong and building momentum for the quarterfinals.
