U-20 WWC: Asamoah Gyan’s visit was motivation for Black Princesses – Charles Sampson

Head coach Charles Sampson of the Black Princesses soccer team disclosed that a surprise visit by former Ghanaian captain Asamoah Gyan served as a significant source of motivation for his team. The players had been informed about Gyan's arrival in advance, which allowed them to anticipate and look forward to meeting the legendary striker even before the match commenced.

Sampson revealed that the team was already excited to see Gyan, and his presence in the dressing room during halftime provided an additional boost. The coach noted that the players were visibly delighted to interact with the former striker, with their joy evident as they welcomed the moment and enjoyed the interaction. With Ghana now securing a commanding 3-1 victory over South Korea, their hopes of advancing beyond the group stage of the FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup remain alive.

The team will next face France on Saturday, September 12, and a positive result from Ghana would secure their qualification to the next stage.
