Ghana sealed yet another win in a friendly game as part of their preparations for the delayed 2024 Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON).
The Black Queens overcame a first-half scare to pick up a 2-1 win against Benin in Benslimane in their second friendly game.
Kim Lars Bjorkegren's side came into the game on the back of an emphatic win over Malawi last weekend.
The Queens had a dream start to the game with Nina Norshie scoring after just four minutes played with a back flick.
Benin drew level seven minutes later before they went ahead from the penalty spot in the 32nd minute, putting Ghana under pressure. Benin went into the break with a 2-1 lead.
After the recess, Ghana were back on level terms. Alice Kusi scored the equalising goal.
Susan Ama Duah made it 3-2 in the 70th minute mark, before Chantelle Boye-Hlorkah wrapped up the victory in the 81st minute.
Bjorkegren's side will finish their pre-tournament camping with a friendly against Nigeria in the coming days.
The 2024 WAFCON starts on July 5 with Ghana in Group C alongside defending champions South Africa, Tanzania and Mali.
The Black Queens are hoping to win the competition for the first time in their history on their 13th appearance.
