Taking the lead after 35 minutes, Jacqueline Ntoso's goal set the tone early on. Despite Priscilla Mensah nearly doubling the lead just two minutes into the second half, Ghana's Ruth Amponsah stepped up to secure the second goal, followed by a close-range finish from Amponsah herself three minutes later. Diana Amoako sealed the win with a powerful strike in the closing stages.
