Striker Priscilla Adubea scored four goals as the Black Princesses posted a convincing 5-0 win over Kenya in a 2018 Women's World Cup qualifier on Sunday afternoon.
Priscilla Adubea found the back of the net twice in each half plus an early effort from Helena Obeng gave Ghana the heavy win over their East African counterparts.
Basigi’s charges opened the scoring in the first 10 minutes of the game when Helena Obeng slotted home a beautiful finish before Adubea started her onslaught.
The in-form Ampem Darkoaa Ladies striker doubled the lead for Ghana few minutes after Helena's opener and added her second and Ghana's third before the break.
Ghana returned from the break with Adubea still in her unstoppable element, fetching the 4th and 5th goals before the 75th-minute mark.
Ghana will travel to Nairobi for the second leg, which is now expected to be a mere formality.
But coach Yusif Basigi insists his charges will not be complacent ahead of the second leg of the game since football is full of uncertainties.
According to him, "It's not over until it's all over."
"Yes we won comfortably 5-0 and that should make us happy but this is football. It's not over until it's all over," Basigi said.
"We need to play better than we did here in Ghana to make sure we get to the next stage of the qualifier.
"We can't relax because we've scored 5-0. They can also score 5-0 or more to kick us out. So we need to keep our preparations up and ensure we get a good scoreline in Kenya to make it," he added.
The winner will face either Morocco or Cameroon in the last stage of the qualifiers for a place in the World Cup.
Two teams would represent Africa in the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup scheduled for August 7-26 2018, in France.
