The Black Queens will begin their 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) campaign under a revised fixture schedule following changes announced by the Confederation of African Football (CAF).
Kim Lars Björkegren’s side will open their Group C campaign against Cape Verde on Wednesday, July 29, at the Moulay Rachid Stadium in Casablanca, with kick-off set for 17:00 GMT.
Ghana will return to the same venue on Sunday, August 2, to face Cameroon in their second group match, also kicking off at 17:00 GMT.
The Black Queens will conclude their group stage campaign against Mali on Thursday, August 6, with the match scheduled for 20:00 GMT at the Moulay Rachid Stadium.
The revised fixtures follow CAF’s adjustments to the tournament programme, which also resulted in Ghana’s team base being relocated from Fez to Casablanca ahead of the competition.
The Black Queens will be aiming to make a strong impression in Morocco as they seek to advance from Group C, compete for the continental title, and strengthen their bid to secure qualification for the FIFA Women’s World Cup.
With all three group matches set to be played at the Moulay Rachid Stadium, Ghana will hope familiarity with the venue provides an advantage as they chase a place in the knockout stages of the tournament.
