Ghanaian midfielder Mohammed Kudus has extended his heartfelt support to the Ghana Black Queens as they gear up for a pivotal semifinal clash against host nation Morocco in the 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON). Kudus, who currently plays for Tottenham Hotspur, commended the team’s determination, resilience, and relentless work ethic, urging them to continue pushing forward as they strive to make history.
In a motivational video message shared ahead of the Tuesday encounter, Kudus expressed his pride in the Black Queens’ performances so far. “I wish you all the best in your upcoming games,” he stated. “I’m really proud of your energy, your hard work, and your fight to defend Ghana. I’m looking forward to your next match, and I hope you guys bring the gold home. We are all behind you.”
The Black Queens have been showing exceptional form in the tournament, progressing to the semifinals for the first time in nearly a decade. Their journey included impressive victories over Tanzania and Algeria. Notably, their quarterfinal triumph against Algeria was sealed in a tense penalty shootout, highlighting the team’s composure under pressure.
Historically, Ghana has finished as runners-up on three occasions in WAFCON but has yet to claim the coveted title. The current squad now stands on the verge of breaking this cycle, aiming to secure Ghana’s first-ever Women’s Africa Cup of Nations trophy since the tournament’s inception.
Fans and supporters are eagerly anticipating the showdown with Morocco, who benefit from home advantage. The Black Queens’ blend of youthful energy and experienced leadership promises an exciting encounter. Kudus’ words have undoubtedly added motivation and belief within the squad as they look to make history for Ghanaian women’s football.
