U-20 Championship Finals: Holders Ghana close in on title

For the Ghanaian Under-20 national side, Angola will not be their main enemy to deny them the African Championship the Black Satellites won last time, but destiny.
What about complacency? "Not at all," says the Ghana coach, Emmanuel Afranie.
"We respect Angola, especially that they've reached the final, but my boys will correct the mistakes we made in our first clash."
Ghana won the title at home two years ago, beating arch-rivals Nigeria 1-0.
The Satellites clinched the title for the first time in 1993, beating Cameroon 2-1 in the final, after the Cameroonians had won the group match between the two sides 2-0.
It is the same scenario in Addis Ababa. Ghana defeated Angola 1-0 in a Group B clash with a late goal by Derrick Boateng, but Sunday's final could be a different ball game.
Afranie said: "The approach will be different on Sunday. We are going to be more serious and cautious."
Afranie is clearly taking no chances and an added motivation for the Satellites is that the majority of Ethiopian fans will be behind them.
At the same Addis Ababa stadium, Ghana lost the final of the 1968 Nations Cup to Congo Leopoldville (ex-Zaire) 1-0, after the Black Stars had beaten the same team in a group match in Asmara.
Ghana are no doubt the favourites to lift the title for the third time, as the only undefeated side to reach this far, with Mali taking an early exit after drawing all three of their Group B matches.
No changes will be made to the Ghanaian side that played against Egypt in the semi-final, and went through on penalties after a 1-1 draw
Ghana also have the best defence of the tournament with only three goals conceded in total - keeper Maxwell Owusu-Banahene beaten once each by Nigeria, Mali and Egypt.
However, with tournament leading scorer Pedro Mantorras in top form, the Ghanaian defence face a crucial test on Sunday.
Experience at this level will also count a lot for the Ghanaians, who have played in three youth World Cup finals, playing the title decider in 1993 against Brazil in Australia, but losing 2-1.
Back home, Ghanaians would consider anything less than the trophy a humiliation.
