Ghana’s Black Queens produced a wonderful performance with an overwhelming 7-0 victory over Rwanda in the first leg of the 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifier (WAFCON) at the Kigali Pele Stadium on Wednesday afternoon.
Nora Häuptle’s ladies gave a ten out of ten performance on the day on the road against the Rwandans team who couldn’t stop the might of Ghana.

Just after the break, Alice Kusi got her name on the score sheet for the away team to make it 3-0 to the Queens.
Four minutes after the hour mark of the one-sided game, Evelyn Badu grabbed her second goal of the match to put Ghana in a 4-0 lead.
A minute later Jennifer Cudjoe missed a spot kick awarded Ghana before Evelyn Badu’s hat-trick a minute later.
Achiaa Anastaesia extended the lead, making it six for the Queens with a long-range strike in the 75th minute, following a goalkeeper error.
