Published on: 01 December 2020

The Black Queens recorded another victory over their Moroccan counter in a second friendly in five days. 

Sandra Owusu Ansah's brace was enough to complete a 5-1 aggregate victory over the North Africans.

Winger Priscilla Okyere volleyed over in the 14th minute and Sandra Owusu Ansah audaciously finished it off to net her second and sparked celebrations at the Accra Sports Stadium.

The Atlas Lionesses then, took over the game, dominated possession in the latter part of the first half but had nothing to show for it as the first half came to a close.

Back from recess, the second half saw both teams pressing hard with Ghana captain, Elizabeth Addo coming close in the 68th and 76th minutes but her efforts got cleared off the goal line by goalkeeper, Errnichi Khadija.

The Black Queens dominated the latter stages of the game but could not find the back of the net as the Moroccans resorted to a defensive system to avoid an embarrassing score line.

The two teams changed their pattern of play to conserve energy with the game ending two nil in favour of Ghana. The Black Queens thus won 5-1 on aggregate following a come from behind 3-1 win in the reverse tie on Thursday.
