The national beach soccer team, the Black Sharks, will compete in the 2024 edition of the Africa Cup of Nations after beating Cote d'Ivoire in a two-legged game.
The qualification to the main tournament comes following their 10-5 aggregate win over their counterparts.
Ghana came from behind to win 2-5 in the return leg of the fixture on Saturday, July 27, having won the home game in Keta 5-3 a week earlier.
The Ivorians led 2-1 at halftime in the second-leg encounter. However, the Black Stars scored four goals in the second half to turn the tie around.
Wise Nyamadi scored the equaliser after the break before captain Alex Osah and Precious Torgbor got on the scoresheet to make it 4-2.
Jude Akile netted the fifth goal of the day for the Black Sharks to ensure they put the game beyond the reach of the Sand Elephants.
