Ghana's Black Princesses have been eliminated from the FIFA U20 Women's World Cup after a 4-0 loss to France, suffering another group-phase exit. The match took place in Poland, where Ghana finished at the bottom of Group C, missing the knockout stages for the eighth time since 2010. Charles Sampson's team entered their final group game with the goal of avoiding defeat to keep hopes of reaching the knockout rounds alive.
However, they were unable to do so after Priscilla Mensah scored an early goal, which was later deemed offside. France dominated the second half, scoring four unanswered goals to secure the win and confirm Ghana's elimination. The result also left Ghana with three points, four points behind the group winners France and one behind South Korea, while Ecuador topped the group on goal difference.
This loss marked the end of Africa's four representatives in the tournament, following the earlier exits of Benin and Tanzania.
