The Black Galaxies of Ghana have qualified for the Africa Nations Championship (CHAN) holding in Algeria next year after edging out the super eagles at the Moshood Abiola Stadium Abuja.
The Nigerian B team put up a dogged performance at the Moshood Abiola Stadium with goals from Zulkifilu Mohammed in the 76th minute and Chijioke Akuneto in the 94th minute sending the game into penalty shootout where Ghana edged Nigeria 5-4.
This is the second occasion this year Ghana will be stopping a national team from Nigeria from qualifying for a major competition after the Super Eagles A team were denied qualification to the world cup earlier in the year.
Ghana on the other hand will be making a return to CHAN after missing out on the last three editions
