The Black Stars of Ghana retains the Wafu cup after thrashing the Super Eagles of Nigeria 4-1 inside the Cape Coast Stadium in Ghana.

Stephen Sarfo put the hosts infront on 43rd minute as Black Stars head into the break with a goal lead and more blows for Nigeria as Olamilekan Adeleye was stretched out because of injury before that goal.

Ghana brought in Patrick Razak in the second half and it paid off for Maxwell Konadu led side as he was brought down twice inside the penalty box,firstly by Olamilekan Aremu and secondly by Stephen Eze.
