Ghana rewards U20s with cash & cars

The "Black Satellites" beat pre-tournament favourites and four-times winners Brazil 4-3 on penalties after a goalless draw after extra time.

The package includes a Toyota saloon car to each player, squad member and coaching personnel.

In addition to the cars, the team will receive cash rewards, from the government and also from private donors.

The cash reward includes 10,000 cedis ($6,900) each in Ghana's 10-15 year bonds - in itself over twice the average annual salary of a Ghanaian public sector worker.
