England U-20 Coach Excited about Ghana Friendly on Easter Sunday

Ghana’s Under 20 team, the Black Satellites will travel to the Great Britain to play the England under 20’s in an international Friendly at Doncaster Rovers’ Keepmoat Stadium on Easter Sunday, 27th March 2016.


The game will be New England head coach Keith Downing’s first and the former West Bromwich Albion trainer minced no words in expressing his delight that his team would be heading to Doncaster to face Ghana in his first game in full charge.

“It’s a lovely place and a great stadium, so we’re delighted they’ll be hosting us,” Keith Downing told the official FA website.


“It is a really exciting game we have to look forward to against African opposition, and Ghana have notoriously done well at youth level so it will be a good test for us.


“It’s an Easter Sunday as well, so it’s a great opportunity for local fans and families to come and enjoy a day out at the football, and watch up and coming England stars on their home turf.”


The game at Doncaster will be the U20s’ first fixture of 2016, and the first Three Lions game at the stadium in three years.
