Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>Neil Armstrong-Mortagbe, Head of Public Relations and Strategy at the Ghana Football Association (GFA), believes that the Ghana U-17 team was negatively affected by the unexpected resignation of coach Laryea Kingston.<\/b><\/p>\n

Kingston stepped down following the team\u2019s semi-final loss to Burkina Faso, which ended their hopes of qualifying for the upcoming U-17 AFCON. This marked the third consecutive failure for the Black Starlets to qualify for the tournament.<\/p>\n

Kingston had announced his intention to resign after the tournament but left the team before the third-place playoff. Armstrong-Mortagbe noted that this departure caused instability as the Black Starlets lost the third-place playoff match against Nigeria, finishing fourth overall.<\/p>\n

\u201cLaryea\u2019s project ran for about seven months… We started with the WAFU Zone B U-17 Championship here, 5-1 against Ivory Coast, next game 2-0. Everybody expected that we should be hopefully qualifying directly to the U-17 AFCON,\u201d Armstrong-Mortagbe said on Joy Prime.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnfortunately, the results didn\u2019t go our way thereafter. Laryea announced his intent to leave the role in the course of the tournament and I think that created a bit of instability around the team.\u201d<\/p>\n

The GFA has yet to make an official announcement since the tournament ended, but Ghanaians hope that the majority of the players, who showed immense quality, will be retained to help them reach the top of their careers.<\/p>\n
