Grace Asantewaa delivered a brilliant midfield display to inspire Ghana's Black Queens to a dramatic 4-2 penalty shootout win over Algeria, earning her the Woman of the Match award in their 2024 WAFCON quarter-final clash in Berkane.
The victory sends the Black Queens into the semi-finals of the Women's Africa Cup of Nations for the first time in over a decade, a milestone achieved through sheer grit, smart substitutions, and heroic goalkeeping.
Stella Nyamekye thought she had given Ghana the lead in the first half, but her goal was ruled out after a VAR check.
The Queens kept pushing with Doris Boaduwaa and Chantelle Hlorkah threatening, while Asantewaa tirelessly controlled the midfield tempo.
