Black Princesses striker Mukarama Abdulai is thanking Team Ghana for supporting the Princesses’ run in the 13th African Games.
In a message posted on her X (formerly Twitter) page, the Hasaacas Ladies player was grateful for the support Ghana’s National Women’s Under 20 Football Team received en route to winning the gold medal at the 2023 African Games.
Ghana beat arch rival Nigeria 2-1 in the final coming back from a goal down to grab the win with goals from Tracey Twum and Mukarama at the Cape Coast Sports Stadium.
Mukarama, who shot to fame at the FIFA Under 17 Women’s World Cup in Uruguay in 2018, struggled early in the 13th African Games and even attracted boos for her performances.
However, she recovered to score in Ghana’s 3-1 win over Senegal in the semifinals and the winning goal in extra time against Nigeria in the final.
“I want to express my deep gratitude for your unwavering support. It is because of your passion and dedication that Team Ghana has emerged victorious at the African Games securing the gold medal. Thank you for believing in us. This victory is as much yours as it is ours.”
