Black Queens coach Nora Hauptle has commended her team’s fighting spirit following their exit from the 2024 Olympic Games qualifiers.
Ghana drew 3-3 in Ndola after losing 0-1 in Accra and bow out of the competition for a spot to Paris due to the 4-3 aggregate result to Zambia.
Hauptle reflected on her team’s efforts and bravery to go all out against the Copper Queens.
“My team was brave, my team was playing football, my team was fighting, I can’t blame them at all. Sometimes it’s hard.
“They scored a free kick and the red card in the last minute. We would have loved to go overtime but all in all it’s disappointing for us but kudos to Zambia.”
The Black Queens will noe switch their focus to the African Womens Cup of Nations slated for Morocco in 2025.
