Mali’s 1-0 win over Tanzania has put Ghana’s Black Queens in a tough spot.
Ghana lost 2-0 to South Africa earlier, and now they need to get a good result against Mali to stay in contention for the next round.
If they don’t, their chances of advancing will be slim. Mali’s victory was thanks to a well-taken goal by Saratou Traoré in stoppage time, and their goalkeeper made some crucial saves to secure the win.
Ghana’s coach will need his team to step up their game against Mali, who have shown they can control matches and capitalize on scoring opportunities.
The stakes are high for Ghana, and they’ll need to respond with urgency to keep their tournament hopes alive.
