The Black Queens side dominated the game from the onset with a spirited performance in both halves as they brushed aside the “She Amavubis” in the first leg.
A second-minute goal from Doris Boaduwaa set the tone for the afternoon before Evelyn Badu doubled the lead with a sumptuous strike in the ninth minute after latching on to a pass from Grace Acheampong.
Priscilla Adubea got the third of the afternoon with a header in the 30th minute.
After the break, Alice Kusi scored the fourth goal of the game for the Black Queens in the 53rd minute before Evelyn Badu delivered a beautiful strike in the 64th minute to get Ghana’s fifth goal of the game.
Jennifer Cudjoe missed a penalty in the 65th minute but Anastaesia Achiaa made it six for the Queens with a long-range strike in the 75th minute.
Anastaesia grabbed her second a few minutes later as the Black Queens rounded it up with a 7-0 win against Rwanda.
The return fixture is scheduled for the Accra Sports Stadium on Tuesday, September 26, 2023.
