The Ghanaian women’s national football team, the Black Queens, have arrived in Casablanca, Morocco, ahead of their highly anticipated friendly match against the host nation on Friday, February 21.
The team’s arrival marks the beginning of a new era under the guidance of newly appointed head coach, Kim Lars Bjorkegren.
The Swedish tactician was unveiled as the Black Queens’ new head coach last week, and the friendly match against Morocco will serve as his first test in charge.
In preparation for the encounter, the Black Queens departed Accra in the early hours of Saturday, February 15, to begin their training camp.
Coach Bjorkegren named his squad for the game shortly after his unveiling with a notable selection of just four players from the Ghana Women’s Premier League.
The friendly match against Morocco serves as a crucial preparatory game for both teams ahead of the 2025 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON).
The encounter will provide valuable experience and a chance for the teams to fine-tune their strategies before the continental showpiece.
The match promises to be an exciting clash between two nations eager to make their mark on the international women’s football scene.
