2026 U-20 WWC: Black Princesses suffer another group stage exit after defeat to France
The Black Princesses finished bottom of Group C after losing 4-0 to France in their final group game of the tournament being played in Poland.
The Ghana U-20 Women’s World Cup team suffered another disappointing group stage exit, this time falling 4-0 to France in a match held in Poland. The team, known as the Black Princesses, had hoped to advance from Group C, but a crucial loss to France dashed those ambitions. Ghana entered the game with a chance of advancing, having previously beaten South Korea in their previous match.
However, they were unable to overcome France's superior play, which was evident in their four-goal spree in the second half. The loss leaves Ghana at the bottom of the group standings, trailing France by four points, South Korea by one, and tied with Ecuador, who finished third. This marks the eighth consecutive group stage exit for the U-20 Ghanaian team since their first participation in 2010.
Additionally, this loss adds to Africa's woes, as Benin and Tanzania have also been eliminated from the competition during the group stage.
