Ghana Claims Victory

Ghana celebrated a 2-0 victory against Benin in their second matchup at the ongoing WAFU B Girls Cup. This win marked a successful double for Ghana, who previously defeated Benin by the same scoreline in their first encounter.

Key Moments in the Match

Sarah Nyarko opened the scoring for Ghana just 14 minutes into the match following a chaotic moment in the penalty area. Despite facing significant pressure from their hosts, Ghana’s goalkeeper Aishetu made several crucial saves to keep Benin at bay.

Ghana maintained their slender lead as they headed into halftime. After the break, Benin attempted to build momentum and even found the net, only for the goal to be disallowed due to offside. Ghana had to showcase resilience, effectively blocking multiple attempts from Benin, who pressed hard for an equalizer.

In a notable incident, Linda Owusu Ansah skillfully navigated around the goalkeeper but her subsequent shot was disallowed for a foul. However, as the match approached its conclusion, Latifa Musah scored in the 92nd minute, sealing the game at 2-0 in favor of Ghana.
