Head coach of Ghana’s U20 Women’s National Team, Charles Sampson, believes his players will be ‘mentally’ ready for their reverse fixture against South Africa.
The Black Princesses twice relinquished their lead at the Accra Sports Stadium in the first leg of their U20 Women’s World Cup qualifiers on Sunday.
Agnes Yeboah scored Ghana’s first goal of the game before Linda Owusu Ansah netted in the second half, but the game ended 2-2 in Accra.
The result left the team broken as they now have to win in South African to progress to the last round of the qualifiers.
“We have a crop of players that are mentally strong and psychologically, we will also do those parts and get them tuned and ready for the next to make sure we get what we are looking for,” Sampson said.
“We know that there are two games; a home and away, that is why we are here. We are going to prepare and make sure we go to South Africa at their home and go forward.”
The Black Princesses will need to win against South Africa to advance to the final round of the qualifying series, where they could face either Zambia or Uganda.
