The Black Stars B will take on Burkina Faso in Ouagadougou on Sunday 20th October in the qualifiers for the Championship of African Nations 2nd leg qualifiers.

Ghana will need to overturn a one nil deficit suffered in Kumasi some months ago but even before the team kicks a ball the Sports Ministry has promised to pay them a qualification bonus for the two legs should they qualify even though they lost the first leg.

The team will also be airlifted to Burkina by a chartered Airforce plane.

"The Ministry of Youth and Sports is ensuring that the Black Stars 'B' gets very well motivated to avenge the defeat they suffered at the hands of Burkina Faso in the first leg of their African Nations Championships (CHAN) qualification at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium, Kumasi a fortnight ago."

"As they play in the return leg this weekend, the team will be airlifted via a chartered Airforce flight to Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso on Saturday morning and return immediately after the match on Sunday night."

"Even though the team lost at home in the first game, a qualification bonus will be paid for the two-legged encounter and not just a single match winning bonus should they win in the return leg on Sunday."

Burkina Faso has in recent times been a torn in the flesh of the Black Stars B team firstly in 2017, they prevented Ghana from reaching the CHAN tournament after Ghana had played a 2-2 drawn game in Ougadougou and ended up losing 2-1 at the Baba Yara Stadium.

At the quarter finals of the Wafu cup tournament it ended in a draw before Ghana progressed via penalty shoot out.
