Ghana striker Ibrahim Sadiq scored the lone goal in the 39th minute at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium to help his side take three points. "We want to qualify with the second game, so we are going to go all out in the second game to get another three points to guarantee a place in the next stage," Fabin said.
Commenting on the team's lone goal scorer of the evening, Fabin hailed Sadiq as one of the fastest players in his side. "He (Sadiq) is one of the fastest players, we have monitored him," the coach said. Fabin also heaped praise on his goalkeeper Danlad Ibrahim and the defence. "Credit goes to my goalkeeper and the defence, they did tremendously well," Fabin said.
