The Ghanaian women’s national football team, the Black Queens, have been drawn into a challenging Group C for the 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON). The draw, which took place on November 22, 2024, in Morocco, pits the Black Queens against defending champions South Africa, as well as Mali and Tanzania.

The Black Queens will face a particularly tough test against South Africa, who won their first WAFCON title in 2022. Under the guidance of coach Nora Hauptle, Ghana will need to be at the top of their game to navigate this competitive group and secure a place in the knockout stages.

The team’s preparation will be crucial as they seek to overcome the challenges posed by their formidable opponents. Having missed out on the last edition of the tournament, the Black Queens made a strong comeback during the qualifying campaign, showcasing their determination and skill.

With a mix of experienced players and emerging talent, Ghana is poised to put forth a strong challenge. Coach Hauptle’s leadership has been instrumental in revitalizing the team, and they are now focused on reclaiming their status among Africa’s elite football nations.

The upcoming tournament presents an opportunity for the Black Queens to demonstrate their growth and resilience. The stakes are high for Ghana as they aim for their first WAFCON title. Ghanaians will be hoping to see their team rise to the occasion and make a significant impact at WAFCON 2024.
