CAF Women’s Olympic qualifier: Black Queens to host Kenya on Friday

Ghana’s Black Queens will host the Harambee Starlets of Kenya in the first leg of the third round of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games qualifier at the Accra Sports Stadium on Friday.

Black Queens head coach Mercy Tagoe-Quarcoo has invited three foreign-based players to augment his squad ahead of the crucial game.

Happy Sports understands that Ernest Abambilla who plays for Swedish club Assi IF has arrived in camp with the others yet to arrive.

Speaking to the media ahead of the game the Black Queens coach Mercy Tagoe said, “Fortunately when we were preparing towards the Africa Women’s Cup of Nations (AWCON) we did some tour and we happen to play with the Kenyans. So we have a fair idea about the team.”

The Black Queens will be hoping to win the game by a wider margin at home in order to make the return leg a mere formality.

The second leg comes off on October 8, 2019 in Nariobi
