Ghana U17 coach Paa Kwesi Fabin says his side are keeping their feet firmly on the ground after a stunning start to the Africa U-17 Championship in Gabon.

The Black Starlets, produced a swashbuckling display of football as they began their campaign with a 4-0 thumping of Cameroon.

Captain Eric Ayiah and striker Ibrahim Sulley scored a brace each as the Paa Kwesi Fabin’s men moved to second, win away from securing qualification to the FIFA U-17 World cup.

Despite their emphatic victory, Ghana coach is not getting carried away and has reminded his players that they have not won anything yet.

''I must also congratulate Cameroon for giving us a very good match though we took our chances and won 4-0 and just as I noted during the pre-match conference, we are one united football family despite the fact that we had won today,'' Fabin said in the post-match interview.

''Cameroon started well but the turning point was the first goal we scored which gave our boys the confidence and they never looked back but it was when we scored the fourth goal that I knew that the match was won and lost.

''We want to focus on the next match and hopefully with a win, we can talk about qualification for the World Cup.''
