The Black Queens of Ghana are set to take on world superpowers Germany in an international friendly game next month.
The female senior national team would meet the European giants in Paderborn, as Germany prepares for their appearance at this summer’s Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.
The Germans play Zimbabwe in their group, and thus chose the Queens as a sort of warm up for the African style of play- Ghana failed to qualify for Rio.
“Ghana were our first-choice opponents because we desperately wanted to test ourselves against an African team to round up our preparation for the Olympics,” the team’s General Manager, Doris Fitschen said.
“Their style of play is very similar to our first opposition at the Games, Zimbabwe.
“We will contest the match using our entire 18-player Olympic squad.” Fitschen added.
