Nora Häuptle: Black Queens job still requires ‘much more work’ than expected

Nora Häuptle has admitted that the Black Queens job will still require “much more” work to make the team “ready to fight and win incessantly” than he first expected despite winning three matches, including a double over Senegal.

But Häuptle, speaking as they intensify their preparations towards the WAFU Zone B championship, stated that she was “not scared” about doing the work required as she seems to have the full support of the Ghana Football Association. 


"We still need to work a lot on our principles, the players need to find each other. We are still in the building process of this team, and it is very important again that we have friendly games."


"I think, all in all, in the end, we deserved this victory against the Teranga Lionesses, we also need to give them (Senegal) respect. I think we had the patience also, we knew we had quality, and in the end, sometimes you play not so beautifully, but you still win, and this is very important."

Häuptle, who sounded more ready for the challenge as the Black Queens are hoping to qualify for the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations in 2024 after missing out on the previous tournament.
