“The Ghana Football Association have received a disciplinary decision from CAF concerning a protest filed against two of our U17 players in a controversial World Cup Qualifiers second leg played against Morocco in Rabat.
“The decision bans Ghana from two subsequent U17 World Cup qualifiers with a fine of US$100,000,” the FA published on its website.
“GFA sent a written defence to CAF which was not considered. The GFA will study the full decision and respond with a written appeal accordingly,” the FA said.
The Moroccans filed the protest after losing 2-0 in the first leg in Ghana in the qualifiers for the U-17 Women’s World Cup.
However, Ghana lost 4-2 on penalties to Morocco in the final qualifier.
