Black Queens head coach Nora Hauptle remains hopeful despite their disappointing loss in the 2024 Paris Olympic Games qualification against Zambia.
Hauptle emphasized the need for the team to learn from this experience and take away valuable lessons as they look ahead to future competitions.
Reflecting on the performance of her players, Hauptle expressed confidence in the potential of the team, highlighting their youth, hunger, and talent.
The first leg of the qualifier saw Zambia claim a narrow 1-0 victory at the Accra Sports Stadium, setting the tone for a challenging series for Ghana.
Despite the initial setback, Hauptle remained positive about her team’s chances in the return leg, believing they had the capability to overturn the deficit.
However, the Black Queens faced another tough battle in the return leg in Ndola, managing a 3-3 draw with Zambia but ultimately falling short of advancement.
With a final aggregate score of 4-3 in favor of Zambia, Ghana’s hopes of progressing in the qualifiers were dashed, ending their bid for Olympic qualification.
