Ghana have defeated Iraq 3-0 in their third-place playoff at the Under-20 World Cup in Turkey.

The opening goal came on 35 minutes when Joseph Attamah headed in at the near post from a corner.

Ghana's lead was doubled moments before half time as Ebenezer Assifuah fired a low shot into the net for his sixth strike of the tournament.

The victory was then sealed 12 minutes from the end thanks to Frank Acheampong's composed finish.
