Black Maidens Set for Togo Test as U17 Women’s World Cup Qualifiers Begin
Black Maidens will kick off their journey toward the FIFA U17 Women’s World Cup with a crucial two-legged encounter against Togo next month.
Ghana’s young side will first travel to Lomé for the opening leg, scheduled for April 12 at the Stade de Kegue, before returning home for the decisive second leg at the Accra Sports Stadium on April 18.
The tie forms part of the opening round of the African qualifiers, where teams across the continent are battling for limited slots at the global tournament.
After a period of absence from the competition, the Black Maidens are eager to re-establish themselves and make an immediate impact. A strong performance in the first leg away from home will be crucial in shaping their chances ahead of the return fixture.
With the second leg set to be played in Accra, Ghana will look to capitalise on home support and familiar conditions to secure progression.
The upcoming clash represents an important step in the team’s rebuilding process, as they aim to reclaim their place among Africa’s elite at youth level and book a ticket back to the world stage.
