Black Queens Withdraw From Tanzania Tournament
Ghana’s senior women’s national team, the Black Queens, have withdrawn from the three-nation tournament scheduled to take place in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, during the June FIFA international window.
The tournament, which was set to feature Tanzania, Ghana and Malawi from June 1 to June 9, was part of preparations for the upcoming Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON).
Confirming the decision, the Ghana Football Association (GFA) stated: “Ghana Black Queens have withdrawn from the upcoming three-nation women’s tournament scheduled to take place in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania during the June FIFA international window.”
The Black Queens are now expected to continue preparations in Accra and play friendly matches locally as they intensify preparations for WAFCON, which will be held from July 25 to August 16.
Ghana will be aiming to build on their bronze-medal finish at the last edition and challenge for a maiden continental title.
