The Black Queens of Ghana thrashed Rwanda 7-0 during the first leg in Kigali before repeating a similar feat beating their opponents by five goals to nil in the second leg encounter at the Accra Sports Stadium.

The two match results saw the Ghanaian female team recording seven wins from seven games without conceding a single goal since Nora Hauptle was appointed as the head coach of team.

Speaking about Nora Hauptle’s transformation of Ghanaian women’s national team, Gifty Oware made it clear that the Black Queens have become so good that they are currently performing better than their male counterparts, the Black Stars.

“I think Nora Hauptle’s tenure has been good. It is the number of the games we’ve played so far and how we have appreciated it. I feel that the fundamentals are right now, and that is what it really is,” Gifty Oware said in a recent interview with Citi FM.

“It is better that we look at the conversation from the perspective of how much we are winning and not look at whose tenure or what tenure it was” she added.

Madam Gifty Oware, who doubles as the Deputy Executive Director of the National Service Scheme, asserted that it is encouraging that the Black Queens are doing better and stated that the female team will continue to do better.

“And I think that, at this point, I can even proudly say maybe, Ghana’s Black Queens are doing better than the Black Stars. Women’s league is coming of age and the Women’s football is also coming of age” she concluded.

Meanwhile, Ghana’s Black Queens will now face Namibia in the last round of qualifiers for a spot at the 2024 Women’s AFCON tournament.
