2026 WAFCON: It will be a tough game against Cameroon but I am confident in my players - Black Queens coach Kim Lars Bjorkegren
Black Queens head coach Kim Lars Bjorkegren has admitted that Ghana faces a difficult challenge against Cameroon but insists he has full confidence in his players ahead of their crucial Group D encounter.
Ghana will take on the Indomitable Lionesses of Cameroon on Sunday at the Moulay Rachid Stadium in Casablanca, with both teams heading into the fixture on the back of opening-match victories.
Speaking to the media on Saturday ahead of the game, the Swedish tactician acknowledged Cameroon’s quality but believes facing a strong opponent can bring out the best in his team.
"It is going to be a tough game against Cameroon, but I know my team very well, and I believe in them," Bjorkegren said.
"A difficult opponent usually means that we are a better Ghana team," he added.
The Black Queens secured a winning start to their campaign and know that another victory against Cameroon will seal their qualification to the quarterfinals of the tournament.
Ghana are also targeting a strong finish at the competition, with a place in the semifinals set to guarantee qualification for the 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Brazil.
