Black Queens are set to arrive home to a hero's welcome on Monday, July 28, following their inspiring bronze-medal finish at the 2024 Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) in Morocco.
The team will touch down at Kotoka International Airport at 5:00 am aboard Royal Air Maroc, bringing with them renewed hope and pride for Ghanaian women's football.
Led by captain Portia Boakye, the Black Queens delivered an impressive tournament performance, progressing confidently from the group stage, fighting through a dramatic semifinal penalty shootout loss to hosts Morocco, and ultimately securing third place with a shootout win over defending champions South Africa.
The victory marked Ghana's first WAFCON podium finish in over a decade, ending a long wait for continental success.
