The Blacks Stars of Ghana on Sunday defeated the home-based Super Eagles 4-1 to win the West Africa Football Union (WAFU) Cup of Nations trophy at the Cape Coast Stadium in Cape Coast, Ghana. Both teams had earlier met in the group stage of the competition with the Super Eagles beating them 2-0.


The Super Eagles Goalkeeper, Ikechukwu Ezenwa was beaten twice from the spot after substitute Patrick Razak won a penalty which was perfectly converted by Atinga. In the 77th minutes, another bad tackle from Stephen Eze on Razak earned the Black Stars the second penalty.

 

The second kick was buried by Sarfo after he sent Ezenwa to the wrong corner. The other goals were scored by Cobbina and Sarfo who netted a brace. Meanwhile, Niger Republic defeated Benin Republic 2-1 to win the third place.
