Black Queens interim manager Mercy Tagoe has acknowledged the influence her former boss Didi Dramani has had on her coaching career.

Tagoe served as assistant to Dramani, who was Black Queens coach, for nine months before the former Kotoko coach resigned to become the assistant coach of Danish side Nordsjaelland.

Following Dramani’s resignation, the team was entrusted into the hands of the 44-year-old.

“Unfortunately, Didi Dramani left too fast. My stay with Didi Dramani in the national team was very brief. I learnt a lot from him,''She said.

‘’He happened to be one the resource people who took us to our coaching licensing. If you have somebody like this as your head, why won’t you learn?”

In her first five months, Tagoe guided the female national team to win the maiden WAFU Women’s Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast.

She is currently preparing the team for the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations which will be staged in Ghana in November.

The team have been tasked to win the tournament but Tagoe reckons it will be difficult without maximum support from Ghanaians.
