Ghana's next opponent in the 2018 FIFA U20 Women's World Cup Kenya saw of Ethiopia 2-1 in a pulsating contest at the Kenyatta Stadium in Machakos.
The win made the Kenyan girls sail to the next hurdle on a 4-3 aggregate after the first leg in Ethiopia some two weeks ago ended in a 2-2 stalemate.
Experienced Corazone Aquino drew the first blood in the 11th minute with a neat shot, firing low but firmly after being played through by Cynthia Shilwatso to beat opposing custodian Abera Igesi.
The visitors however drew level after Kenyan custodian Lilian Awuor was adjudged to have brought down Mirkat Feleke, who made no mistake with the penalty awarded.
Gentrix Shikangwa however had the last word in the engrossing game heading in a cross from Kaari Wincate.
After the goal, Ethiopia upped their attacks with energetic play in midfield but Kenya’s defence stood tall to claim the win.
