WAFCON 2024 - Black Queens in make-or-break affair against Tanzania today

Ghanas Black Queens face a must-win clash against Tanzania today in what has become a do-or-die encounter in the group stage of the 2024 Womens Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON).Following a 2-0 defeat in their opening match against defending champions South Africa and a hard-fought 1-1 draw with Mali, the Queens find themselves with just a single point after two games.Anything less than a victory against Tanzania at the Berkane Municipal Stadium on Monday will almost certainly end their hopes of advancing to the quarterfinals.Despite the pressure, there are reasons for optimism. The team has shown flashes of quality, particularly in attack, where Doris Boaduwaa and Chantelle Hlorhkah have proven dangerous.Alice Kusi and Grace Asantewaa bring experience and composure in midfield, while coach Kim Bjorkegren has demonstrated tactical flexibility with his substitutions.Tanzania, who are also fighting for survival in the tournament, wont be an easy opponent.They possess speed, grit, and the hunger of a team with everything to gain. However, Ghana will take confidence from past encounters and their superior quality on paper.This match is about more than just three points - its about pride, redemption, and the chance to keep their WAFCON dreams alive.
