However, the team will have a chance to secure a respectable fifth place as they prepare to face Mozambique in a classification match scheduled for today.
Ghana’s performance in the tournament has been a mixed bag, showcasing both potential and areas
for improvement, particularly from forward Alexander Adjei, who has emerged as the tournament’s leading scorer with eight goals in three matches.

Mozambique- 3rd placed in Group B, also looking to improve their standings, will be a tough opponent, and both sides are expected to bring their best to the sandy pitch at the Hurghada Beach Soccer Arena in Egypt.
The classification match promises to be an exciting clash as both teams vie for fifth place and the pride that comes with it.
