Ghana's U-15 girls' team will be hoping to continue their incredible run in the 2025 CAF African Schools Football Championship (ASFC) after making the semifinal.
The Black Damsels enjoyed an excellent run in the group stage after picking up nine points from three games against Morocco, Benin, and Malawi.
Ghana beat Morocco on the opening day before 2-0 and 3-0 wins over Benin and Malawi on matchday two and three, respectively.
With six goals in three games, they finished top of Group A ahead of Morocco, who recovered from their opening day loss to secure six points and finish behind Ghana.
Head coach of the side, Joyce Boatey-Agyei, says their group stage performance is a warning to their rivals.
"This is a morale booster for our players, and it's a great message for the opponents to know that we haven't come to play," she said after the final group game.
"The hearts of all Ghanaians are in our hands; we have to make sure that we handle it with care and make them happy."
Their top-of-the-table finish means they will now face defending champions, South Africa, who finished second in Group B behind Uganda.
In the other semifinal game, Uganda will play last year runners up, Morocco, who are chasing another final appearance.
The semifinal games are scheduled to begin at 14:00 GMT
