The Black Queens kicked off their Pink Ladies Cup campaign with an emphatic win over Hong Kong on Saturday.
Ghana scored twice in each half to record a convincing victory over their opponents in Dubai.
Kim Lars Bjorkegren named a starting lineup for the game, opting for a midfield pair for Jennifer Cudjoe and Chantelle Boye-Hlorkah.
The Black Queens got off a flying start when Princess Marfo struck the first goal of the game.
The Norsdsjaelland winger made a great run which was spotted by Doris Boaduwaa, who passed into the former’s path for the first goal.
Minutes later, Boaduwaa was on the scoresheet, capitalising on a failed clearance in Hong Kong’s defence to double the lead.
It could have been a brace for the Hapoel Jerusalem forward but she missed from the penalty spot after the Queens were awarded a spot kick for a foul on Boaduwaa.
Bjorkegren’s side went into the break with a commanding lead.
Just two minutes from recess, Chantelle Boye-Hlorkah also came to the party, scoring Ghana’s third from close range.
The Queens created several chances but were unable to make them count.
With just two minutes from full time, Agejipena Zakaria, who was making her debut for the Queens, scored the fourth of the game to wrap up the victory.
Ghana’s next game is against Russia on Tuesday, March 3, before facing Tanzania in their final game.
