Ghana’s senior Women national team, the Black Queens will take on Morocco in a friendly tonight at the FAR Sportive Stadium in Rabat.
The game has been scheduled for 10pm as the Black Queens first game since October last year.
Ghana will not participate in this year’s African Women’s Cup of Nations tournament to be hosted by Morocco after losing to Nigeria in the qualifiers.
Ahead of the clash, head coach Mercy Tagoe-Quarcoo has expressed the side readiness for the game.
‘’We have been in camp for close to two weeks now and fortunately the Women’s League is on-going so bringing these girls together wasn’t too difficult’’ she said.
“They were all active and in good shape though there were one or two lapses here and there which with the help of my assistants, we have tried to shape them up towards this international friendly.
‘’So far everyone is in good shape and putting up their best to make it work on Tuesday.
‘’This international friendly is very important not only for the team but for me as a coach because as a national team coach, with or without assignments, you should be ready for any competition that comes your way.
“Ghana will be hosting the All-African Games in 2023 and I believe the Black Queens will represent our motherland so getting this international friendly is in its right direction.
’I believe that when we continue having these international friendlies, it will help shape the team for future assignments. I believe the girls are also happy for these matches because it is going to help them and the national team’’ the former Ghana defender added.
Morocco will use the match as part of the build up to the Africa Women’s Cup of Nations in July 2022.
