Ghana U-20 women’s head coach Yussif Basigi is expecting a difficult test against Nigeria in the final of the women’s football event at the African Games 2023.
The two rivals will clash at the Cape Coast Stadium on Thursday night (today).
The encounter will kick-off at 9pm Nigeria time.
“We are poised to play the final against Nigeria because each time both countries meet, it does not matter how good your team is because of the rivalry. We are prepared for them as they are for us as well,” Basigi told a press conference.
“We vary our games and with the strength of the Nigerians, I think Uganda and Senegal are equally strong but we overcame them.
“Nigeria is strong and technically good and we have what it takes to play against them. Playing against Nigeria is not new as I have played against the Super Falcons during my time as Black Queens head coach.”
