Black Queens Coach, Mas-Ud Didi Dramani, has established that their friendly game against France is in line with the long-term plan they have put in place from now till 2020.

The Black Queens will play a high profile friendly against European giants France slated for October 23, 2017.

The encounter will form part of the Black Queens preparation towards the 2019 Women’s World Cup Qualifiers.

France, who will be hosting the tournament in 2019, will utilize the match as a preparation for the global show piece.

“The fact that we are not playing the qualifiers is why we agreed to play France on the 23rd of this month. It‘s in line with the programs we have put in place comprehensively from now till 2020, hoping to partake in the 2020 Tokyo Olympic games…” Coach Mas-Ud Didi Dramani indicated.

“That is the long term program, the medium term plan is to find us in the 2019 Women’s World Cup in France and the short term is to see us in the 2018 AFCON. So all these ones have been outlined and I believe that with your support, we should be able to put the team in a rightful shape before 2018…” he maintained.

The match will be a stern test for coach, Didi Dramani who recently took charge of the Black Queens.
