Gambia Under 20 team coach, Lamin Sarr, has told Ghana to forget their qualification to next year's African Youth Championship billed for Rwanda even before Gambia host the Satellites in a return qualifier in Banjul in a fortnight's time.

The Baby Scorpions relinquished an early lead to be beaten 1-2 in their match against the Satellites of Ghana, yet, coach Sarr insists his boys have the job well cut out for the game as the final results automatically qualifies one of the teams for the Championship.

Coach Sarr, without sounding complacent, said his charges would deliver at home to book qualification to the competition, which they exited as bronze medallist in Congo Brazzaville last year.

"The team was without six of my key players and yet these boys proved beyond every reasonable doubt that they can deliver.

"The story will have been different if those boys had made it but whether I maintain this team or not, Ghana will not be able to stand between us and qualification," GNA Sports quoted optimistic Sarr saying.

Gambia's captain, Pa Modou Jagne and  Sainey Sidibeh were the only foreign players in the team that glittered and pushed Ghana's ambitions at the reverse gear for most part of the game.

Coach Sarr's desire is to improve upon the team's performance at home in their quest to overturn the results that would complete their dream.

"We played total football and refused to defend like we were expected to do. Gambia will surely be in Rwanda and for that reason we will be better at home and complete our mission," he said.

His counterpart, Sellas Tetteh, said he would stick with his charges when they journey to Banjul in a fortnight in search of a result that could qualify them to the 2009 AYC slated for Rwanda.
