Black Queens defender, Jennifer Cudjoe

Black Queens defender Jennifer Cudjoe has expressed disappointment in Ghana's 1-1 draw with Mali in their second match of the 2024 CAF Women’s AFCON.

Despite numerous opportunities to secure a win, the Black Queens failed to convert them.

Alice Kusi put Ghana ahead in the sixth minute from a Chantelle Boye-Hlorkah cross, but Aissata Traore levelled the score for Mali.

However, even after being named Woman of the Match, Cudjoe couldn't hide her feelings.

"I’m happy to receive it [the Woman of the Match Award] but also a part of me is sad because I feel like we deserved the three points. We just didn’t finish our chances and it hurts.

“It’s really frustrating…but sometimes in a game like this we just have to make sure that we finish our chances. It’s disappointing because we played well and we had chances…but it wasn’t our day," she stated in a social media post.

The Black Queens now face a must-win game against Tanzania on Monday, July 14, at 19:00 GMT to keep their AFCON hopes alive.
