Zambia midfielder Ireen Lungu is determined to secure victory when her outfit lock horns with the Black Queens of Ghana in the 2024 Olympic Games qualifier.
The Copper Queens of Zambia arrived in Ghana on Tuesday to continue their preparation for the much-anticipated clash on Friday at the Accra Sports Stadium.
Speaking ahead of the game, Lungu, one of the experienced players in the Zambian team says their objective is to beat the Black Queens in Ghana.
“Everyone is ready, and we have been pushing ourselves. The league has helped us a lot, so I think everyone is in good shape. The first match in Ghana is important because if we get the three points, then we are good to go. Our aim is to win in Ghana,” said the Kazakhstan-based player.
“Pressure is there but the only pressure is to carry home the maximum three points. That is the pressure that we have,” she added.
Meanwhile, the Black Queens are chasing a first-ever appearance at the Olympic Games.
Ghana's women's national team have been in fine form since Swiss trainer Nora Hauptle took over.
