The Black Queens are gearing up for a crucial clash against Zambia later this month in the third-round tie of the 2024 Olympic Games qualifiers, and new midfielder Freda Ayisi is urging her teammates to embrace self-belief.
Ayisi, who is set to make her debut for Ghana’s national team, emphasized the importance of confidence as they prepare to face Zambia, a formidable opponent who represented Africa in the FIFA Women’s World Cup last year.
Under the leadership of coach Nora Hauptle, the upcoming match poses a significant challenge for the national team.
Speaking in an interview with Joy Sports, the Charlton Athletic midfielder highlighted the team’s focus on the game amidst external distractions.
"Yes, of course [we have what it takes to advance ahead of Zambia]. We have got to be confident in our ability," said the Charlton Athletic midfielder in an interview with Joy Sports.
"We've got to go there with confidence and believe that we get the job done. When we get there, we are just going to be focused on the game and not focusing on outside noise.
"We just need to focus on the game and that is what is going to happen."
