Ghana’s national Under-15 boys’ team, the Black Comets, have progressed to the next stage of the inaugural FIFA U-15 World Cup and Festival in Azerbaijan after winning all three matches in Group W.

Coached by Yaw Preko, the young Ghanaians scored 18 goals and conceded just twice to finish top of the group.

Ghana began their campaign with a 4–1 victory over Uzbekistan, with Abdul Aziz Issah and Jerry Owusu each scoring twice.

The Black Comets followed that performance with a commanding 7–1 win against Myanmar. Angel Junior Adjei netted twice, while Jerry Owusu, Abdul Aziz Issah, Nathaniel Owusu and Shamsudeen Sulemana also scored. An own goal completed Ghana’s tally.

Preko’s side then rounded off their group campaign by beating Guam 7–0, securing maximum points and recording their first clean sheet of the tournament.

The three victories underline Ghana’s attacking strength, with several players contributing goals as the team maintained its momentum throughout the opening stage.

The Black Comets now head into the next round looking to build on a promising start and continue their impressive showing in Azerbaijan.
