Black Queens coach Kim Lars Bjorkegren has stressed his side's need to create chances against Algeria. Ghana will face the North African country in the quarterfinal for a place in the last four in the ongoing 2024 Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) tournament.
The Queens secured a place in the last eight with a draw, a win and a defeat, while the Algerians secured a win and two draws without conceding a goal. "Algeria are a really well-organised team, especially in defense, and they have a good goalkeeper," Björkegren told the press on Friday. "We've talked about the need to make it a little more difficult for her. "We can't just shoot from 45 meters and hope for the best.
We need to create better chances and be clinical when those opportunities come; no need to look for fancy goals. "It's going to be a difficult game, but I believe in the players.
I'm sure they'll put in a good performance," he added.
