Black Queens head coach Kim Lars Bjorkegren has hailed his team's second-half performance in their game against Benin on Wednesday afternoon.
Ghana secured a 4-2 win after 90 minutes, after trailing 2-1 at halftime in Benslimane with goals from Nina Norshie, Alice Kusi, Susan Duah and Chantelle Boye-Hlorkah.
The victory means two wins from two games as part of the team's preparations for the delayed 2024 Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) to be staged in Morocco next month.
Speaking after the game, Bjorkegren was full of praise for his team's display after the break.
"It was a good game. Great second half. I think we were struggling a little bit in the middle of the first half," he said.
"When we took [the ball down] and started to play football, we were absolutely the better team and we scored four goals and even had more chances. I am happy the attack is starting to look better and better.
"We have scored seven goals now in two games."
The Black Queens will wrap up their preparations for the tournament with a friendly against Nigeria on Saturday, June 28.
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.
