2024 FIFA U20 WWC: We’ll go all out in our remaining group games – Black Princesses coach Yussif Basigi 

Black Princesses tactician Yussif Basigi has shifted his attention to the remaining group E games after succumbing to defeat in the 2024 FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup opener.

Ghana conceded a goal in either half as they suffered a 2-1 defeat to tournament debutants, Austria on Monday.

The West Africa outfit will face Japan on Thursday before their final group game against New Zealand.

And according to Basigi, he and his charges will go all out in the remaining group games as they aim to secure qualification to the knockout stage for the first time.

"We started the game slowly and getting to the latter part of the first half we started raising our game and for the second half we dominated play when we were down by a goal" he said.

"We didn't utilize many of our goal scoring chances which was unfortunate. I think this is where we have to polish very well so that we will be able to be back in contention"

"The second half performance was very good if we had started the first half like the way we did in the second half, it would have been super but we started slowly".

Basigi acknowledged the pressure to perform but remains motivated, emphasizing the need to improve and make the most of their remaining games with a formidable squad and valuable experience from previous international friendlies, the Black Princesses are determined to make a strong comeback in their next match.

"I wouldn't say there is no pressure at all because if we had won or drawn this game against Austria, it would’ve given us motivation but now we have no option than to go all out with the remaining two games to go" Basigi added.
