The head coach of the Black Queens of Ghana, Kim Lars Björkegren, is expecting a tough encounter against the Teranga Lionesses of Senegal this afternoon.

Speaking in a pre-match interview on Friday, Coach Kim Lars Björkegren noted that his team is ready for the showdown. He stated that his team is keen on playing well to secure victory at the end of the match.

“The game against Senegal tomorrow. I think it’s going to be a tough one. They play physically. It’s going to be a good game for us. We need to move the ball fast, but if we do that, I’m sure we have the potential to win the game,” Coach Kim Lars Björkegren told the media team of the Ghana FA.

The Black Queens will need to be at their best to overcome the physicality of the Teranga Lionesses. Coach Björkegren’s team has been preparing well for the match, and they will be looking to use their speed and agility to outmaneuver their opponents.

The match against Senegal is a crucial one for the Black Queens, as it will give them valuable experience and exposure ahead of the 2025 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations tournament.

After tomorrow’s friendly, Ghana and Senegal will face off again in a second friendly on Tuesday, April 8.

This will give the Black Queens another opportunity to test their skills against a top opponent and fine-tune their strategy ahead of the big tournament.
