Head coach of the national U-17 side, the Black Starlets, Prosper Narteh Ogum is expected to rally his players to bounce back strongly in a must-win game against the Ménas of Niger tomorrow to keep alive their dreams of pro­gressing in the ongoing WAFU B U-17 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifying tour­nament in Cote d’Ivoire.

Coach Ogum’s side suf­fered a 3-0 defeat at the hands of the host nation in their second Group A game last Tuesday after playing out a 1-1 draw three days earlier.

With only one point from two games, the Black Starlets must secure all three points against the Nigerien, who are sec­ond on the log after they defeated Togo 3-1 in their second game, to keep their hopes of reaching the semi-finals alive.

Coach Ogum will hope Côte d’Ivoire will do them a big favour by de­feating Togo in the other Group A fixture to see them through.
