Colombia 2024: Black Princesses beat Hasaacas Ladies in pre-World Cup friendly

Ghana’s Women’s U-20 side recorded an emphatic victory over Women’s Premier League champions Hasaacas Ladies in a friendly on Friday.

The Black Princesses registered a 4-0 win in the game which was played at the Cape Coast Stadium as part of their preparation for the 2024 U-20 World Cup.

The friendly also served as a test game for Hasaacas Ladies who are expected to represent Ghana at the CAF Women’s Champions League qualifiers this month.

A brace from Salamatu Abdulai and a goal each from Princess Owusu and Abiba Issah sealed the victory for Yussif Basigi’s side.

Salamatu opened the scoring for the Princesses with a sublime finish in the 26th minute of the game giving her side the lead as they headed into halftime.

She added the second five minutes after the return from recess to double the lead for the national side.

Two late goals from Princess and Abiba then wrapped up the win for the Black Princesses.

Basigi continues to test the strength of his players before naming his final squad for the tournament to be staged in Colombia.

Ghana is drawn in Group E where they will face Austria, New Zealand and one-time winners, Japan.

The U-20 Women’s World Cup is scheduled to start on August 31.
