Nicknamed the Black Queens, the side from West Africa started off their campaign in the tournament last week Wednesday when they faced Chile. At the end of what was a Group B encounter, the South Americans beat Ghana 3-0.

Playing its second game in the tournament earlier this afternoon, the Queens have put up an improved performance to ensure they earn their first win.

A brace from Grace Asantewaa together with goals from Princella Adubea and Beatrice Sesu has brushed aside Chile while giving Ghana a good chance to progress to the semi-finals.
