Ghana’s senior female national team, Black Queens, on Thursday afternoon received a rousing welcome at the Kotoka International Airport after their qualification for the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco next year.
The Black Queens booked their place at next year’s tournament following a hard-fought 3-2 aggregate victory over Namibia.
Having won the first leg of the final round of qualifiers 3-1 in Accra, Nora Hautple’s side suffered a 1-0 reverse in Pretoria to narrowly edge the tie on aggregate.
Although Ghana have now lost their first game under Hauptle, qualification marked their return to the WAFCON after a five-year absence.
