Ghana U20 womenââ¬â¢s team defender Cynthia Boakye says she is quitting football over claims of neglect after the FIFA U20 Womenââ¬â¢s World Cup.
The Black Princesses failed to make it past the group stage in the tournament being staged in Canada despite winning two games.
Ghana got eliminated on the superior goal difference rule at the tournament.
The team therefore missed out on their qualification bonus since they were unable to progress from the group stage.
But captain Cynthia Boakye says this was not the agreement they had prior to the commencement of the World Cup.
She also says she is quitting football all together over claims of gender discrimination.
ââ¬ÅAll we knew was that once we win our game we will be paid winning bonus,â⬠she disclosed to Kumasi-based Price FM.
ââ¬ÅWe played with our hearts out only to be told in the end that because we didnââ¬â¢t progress we will not be getting qualification bonus.
ââ¬ÅBut if you look at the treatment given to the Black Stars who didnââ¬â¢t win a single game at the World Cup, it is very different.
ââ¬ÅThere is no fairness and therefore I am quitting football.ââ¬
