Ghana’s Black Maidens produced a ruthless display at the Accra Sports Stadium on Saturday, powering past Togo 6–0 to advance to the next stage of the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup qualifiers.

The emphatic victory completed an 8–0 aggregate triumph for Ghana, who had already taken a 2–0 advantage from the first leg in Togo, underlining their dominance across both encounters.

Backed by a lively home crowd, the Black Maidens wasted no time asserting authority in the return fixture. Juliana Gyekye broke the deadlock in the 13th minute before Zeina Shani struck twice in quick succession to put the hosts firmly in control.

Sekinatu Amadu added a fourth goal before the interval as Ghana went into half-time with a commanding lead.

After the restart, the pressure never eased. Priscilla Mensah made it five in the 77th minute, before Seidatu Wahab completed the rout deep into stoppage time to cap a one-sided contest.

Togo struggled to contain Ghana’s pace, movement, and attacking precision throughout the match, offering little resistance as the hosts dictated proceedings from start to finish.

The result sends the Black Maidens into the second round of qualifying, where they will face Liberia, who progressed via a walkover against Libya.

The next phase of the qualifiers is set for May, with Ghana expected to host the first leg between May 22 and 24 before travelling for the return fixture between May 29 and 31.
