Jimmy Cobblah's team suffered a 2-0 defeat by their Senegalese counterparts in the second game of Group B of the current Continental Youth Championship.
The Senegalese created the first significant chance of this free match when the thrilling Ndaw beat his marker and gave a center to Youssouph Mamadou Badji, who beat goalkeeper Nurudeen in the 11th minute.
Senegal has arranged for its one – goal cruising to begin to develop from behind to attack with smooth moves in the middle of the park to corner the Ghanaians in their own half.
Badji added salt to Ghana's injury when he brought Senegal's score to two in the 45th minute after he hooked on the ball and dived Ghana goalkeeper Abdul Nurudeen Manaf to give three points in Senegal and increase his score to two.
Ghana came back from the break, looking like a team ready to fight back and equalize, but the Black Satellites failed to console each other because all their efforts were in vain.
The Black Satellites continued to attack in hopes of reducing the deficit, but the brilliant Dialy Ndiaye was able to deny Lomotey whose piracy efforts were paralyzed and Ghana moved into second place.
Senegal has not yet lost a match and occupies the top of Group B with six points.
Ghana will then face Mali in the final group match to decide who will join Senegal in the semi-final and reserve a place for the World Cup on Sunday, February 10 at the Maradi stadium.
