Ghana to make 2015 Cosafa bow

Ghana will finally make its bow in the 2015 Cosafa Cup tournament after it was postponed last year.
The Council for Southern African Football Association (Cosafa) had invited Ghana to feature as guests from West Africa for the 2014 edition of the tournament. It was to be hosted by Botswana in September last year but was later cancelled due to ‘financial and logistical constraints.’
Ghana and Tanzania are guests for the tournament to be hosted from May by South Africa but the West Africans have been drawn to start from the quarterfinal against the winner of Group B on May 24.
Group B comprises Seychelles, Madagascar, Mauritius and Swaziland.
Holders Zambia take on the winners of Group A made up of Namibia, Zimbabwe, Lesotho and Tanzania.
Hosts South Africa face Botswana. A Mozambique and Malawi clash completes the quarterfinal games.
Prior to that, the group phase would have been competed from May 17-22. The grand finale of the 14-nation competition is set for May 30.
supersport.com understands that Ghana will likely be represented by the home-based Black Stars team who would use the competition as preparations for the 2016 Chan qualifiers which begin in June.
Zambia and Zimbabwe are record winners of the Cosafa Cup with four titles each.
