Madam Kufuor called on the team to go all out against their South African counterparts to ensure total victory to keep their dreams of making their first ever appearance at the Mundial on tract and also urged them to raise high the flag of Ghana during the fifth FIFA Women's World Cup scheduled for China next month.
