Black Queens head coach Kim Lars Björkegren found pride in defeat as Ghana bowed out of the 2024 Women's Africa Cup of Nations following a tense semifinal loss to Morocco. "I am really proud of the girls they worked so hard we were talking about our fatigue level before the game.
Because we had one day less for recovery then Morocco and we also had one day of travelling so at the end of the day it was really tough to start with.
Then we played another 120 mins and they do it so well I think we were the better team in the game," Lars shared after the heartbreaking result.
Ghana started strongly and took the lead in the 26th minute through teenager Stella Nyamekye, who forced the ball across the line after consistent pressure.
