“Going into this tournament, I think the aim is to move past the group stage and then take it game after game so that has been our motivation so far and that has been the story for all the girls, for the technical team and for everybody that has been part of the team…so we are working hard towards that.”
Ghana is in Group E with Austria, Japan and New Zealand. The top two automatically progress to the next stage with two best third placed teams also progressing.
Ghana has competed in the competition in six straight editions but has never progressed beyond the group stage. Scroll down to watch interview.
