Ghana's Black Queens secured a dominant 10-0 victory over Mauritius in the second round of 2028 Olympic qualifiers, setting up a final qualifying round clash against Zambia. The Black Queens extended their winning streak with a 7-0 triumph in Sekondi, following a 3-0 win away in the first leg. Captain Portia Boakye scored first, with Evelyn Badu adding a second goal.
Ajegipina Zakaria secured the lead at halftime with a third goal. After the break, Ghana's substitutes quickly made their mark as they continued to pressure Zambia. Benedicte Simon scored in the 73rd minute, Jennifer Cudjoe added a fifth in the 87th, and Nancy Amoh and Mukarama Abdulai sealed the victory late on. This win sends Ghana to face Zambia, a team that previously denied Ghana a spot in the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Ghana, who have never qualified for the women's football tournament at the Olympic Games since Atlanta 1996, will be eager to rewrite that history.
