U-20 Women’s World Cup qualifier...Princesses cut Kenya to size

Ghana's Black Princesses have put their best foot foward towards qualifying for the Under-20 Women’s World Cup (WWC) in France next year with a convincing 5-0 win over their Kenyan opponents in the first leg of the second round of the qualifiers played at the Cape Coast Stadium yesterday.

Typical of most away teams, the Kenyans approached the game with a well-rehearsed defensive strategy to thwart the Ghanaians, at least for the first half, but it turned out to be a bad strategy as the Princesses took charge of business and scored five unanswered goals, to have a comfortable lead going into the second leg in Nairobi in two weeks.
