Ghanaian midfielder Evelyn Badu took to Twitter to express gratitude to fans for their support, despite the Black Queens’ disappointing 1-0 defeat to Zambia in the first leg of their Paris 2024 Olympic qualifier on Friday night.
Racheal Kundananji’s early goal put the Copper Queens ahead, leaving Ghana with a mountain to climb in the return leg.
“Thank You Ghana for the Amazing support,” Evelyn Badu wrote on Twitter, acknowledging the passionate home crowd at the Accra Sports Stadium.
The Black Queens now face a crucial away fixture in Zambia on February 27th, needing a victory to keep their Olympic dreams alive. The winner of this two-legged tie will progress to face either Tunisia or Morocco in April for a chance to compete at the Paris Games.
This setback highlights the significant challenge ahead for the Black Queens. They must display resilience and determination in Zambia to overcome the deficit and secure a historic first-ever Olympic appearance.
