Ghana’s Black Princesses booked their place in the third round of qualifiers of the FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup following their heavy win over Guinea Bissau.

Goals from Tracey Twum, Wasiima Mohammed and Helen Alormenu saw the Princesses record another 3-0 win at the Accra Sports Stadium having registered the same scoreline victory in the first leg.

Guinea Bissau came into the game on Saturday with the difficult task of overturning the tie but were confident of getting at least a draw after Ghana looked jittery in the opening half of the game.

The away side were presented with a couple of chances to open the scoring but failed to trouble goalkeeper Afi Amenyaku in the opening half.

The return from recess saw a different performance from the home team as Yussif Basigi’s side turned on the style right from the start.

Twum scored four minutes into the second period of the game to break the deadlock for the Black Princesses before another effort of hers seven minutes later was saved by the opposition’s goalkeeper.

In the 59th minute of the game, Mohammed connected brilliantly with Success Ameyaa’s corner delivery as she found the back of the net, extending Ghana’s lead in the tie.

Alormenu wrapped up the tie with eight minutes to go with Ghana’s third on the day and a sixth in the two games taking them to the next round.

The Black Princesses are two rounds away from booking a ticket to the World Cup which will be staged in Colombia next year.
