CAN U20 Qualifying Tournament Zone Ufoa B : Benin is relaunching.

After their first failed outing against Mena juniors Niger in the opener, the Junior Squirrels provided the essentials on Tuesday 8 December at Charles de Gaulle stadium, winning ahead of Togo (2-0). A victory that allows the coach's men, Mathias Déguénon to reconnect with their chance to qualify for the next round of the competition.

Tackling this Tuesday with the Hawks of Togo as part of the second day of the group stage of the qualifying tournament for the CAN U20, Zone UFOA B, the U20 Squirrels emerge victorious.

Inflated from the start of the match, very early on they displayed the best intentions. Both collectively and individually, no detail is overlooked against a Togolese team who could not really get into the game.

After the first unsuccessful attempts, the selection coached by Mathias Déguénon opened the scoring in the first quarter of an hour through its captain Charbel Gomez following a good overflow from Ishola Olaïtan. A 1-0, confidence gains the rank of rodents determined to give hope to its disappointed supporters during their first outing. From defense to offensive line to midfield, the necessary compatibility was there. Which put the opposing team in trouble. More inspired and creative since the start of the meeting, the forward Amiens FC, Charbel Gomez doubles the focus 30 th minute following a solitary masterpiece (2-0).

Despite some reactions from the Sparrowhawks U20, the score did not change until the break. On resumption, the Togolese have been able to recover the hair of the beast but without finding the flaw. Ditto for the Beninese who at one point, just defended their camp.

2-0, So it is on this score that the final whistle sounds. A result which allows the foals of coach Mathias Déguénon to believe in qualifying for the next round of the competition before their last group meeting on Friday 11 next December against the Junior Stallions of Burkina-Faso.
