Morocco no match for Ghana's Maidens

Ghana’s Black Maidens continued from where they left off in Rabat, securing their 2016 Under-17 Women's World Cup (WWC) qualification with a 6-0 win at the Accra Stadium last Saturday.

The Maidens had won the first leg 4-0 two weeks ago in Rabat.

A brace from Abdul Rahman Barikisu and strikes from Mukaramma Abdulai, Philicity Aduako, Sandra Owusu Ansah and Grace Asantewaa completed the rout.

Coach Evans Adotey's side, thus have qualified for their straight fourth WWC appearance since making their debut at the 2010 competition hosted by Trinidad and Tobago.

They remain the only African country to have reached the semi-finals of the U-17 women's competition after finishing third in the 2012 World Cup.

The 2016 competition, to be hosted by Jordan, will be from September 30 to October 21.
