ACCRA, Jan. 25 (Xinhua) -- Ghana have been paired with Tanzania, Gambia, and Morocco in Group C of the 2021 Total Africa U-20 Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Mauritania next month, the Confederation of African Football (CAF) said Monday.
Mauritania are drawn in Group A with Cameroon, Uganda and Mozambique, while Group B is made up of Burkina Faso, Tunisia, Namibia and the Central African Republic.
Ghana won the West African Football Union (WAFU) U-20 Zone B Cup of Nations in December last year to qualify alongside Burkina Faso for the tournament.

This is the first time the U-20 African Cup of Nations has been expanded to 12 teams instead of the eight in previous tournaments.
The 2021 Total AFCON U-20 tournament, which will be played in the cities of Nouakchott and Nouadhibou, will commence on February 14 and end on March 4. Enditem
