Ghana have officially punched their ticket to the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations after yet another resounding 4-0 win over Egypt in a thrilling second leg game at the Ohene Gyan Stadium.
The Queens have now booked their place in Morocco early next year with a 7-0 on aggregate win over the Cleopatras having beaten them by 0-3 in the first leg in Ismailia last Thursday.
This the second consecutive time Ghana has qualified for the WAFCON in recent years after they had missed out for eight years.
Due to the happenings before the return encounter where the players refused to train due to unpaid bonuses, Sports Minister Kofi Adams has confirmed in an interview that all arrears has been cleared. He told Woezor TV:
“Black Queens’ bonuses have been paid," Mr Adams said. "The players have been given their cheques after the game against Egypt in Accra.”
The team will regroup in December to test their strength against European champions England in December before the WAFCON which comes off in March next year in Morocco.
It will also serve as qualification to the next FIFA Women’s World Cup which will be held in Brazil.
