Defending champions Ghana’s Black Damsels made a powerful statement at the CAF African Schools Football Championship, opening their 2026 campaign with a commanding 6-0 victory over Guinea in Harare.
The emphatic win underlined Ghana’s pedigree in the competition, as the Black Damsels wasted no time asserting dominance with a clinical attacking display and disciplined defensive organization. From the opening whistle, Ghana controlled proceedings, showcasing superior movement, technical quality, and finishing prowess to overwhelm their opponents.
Buoyed by that convincing start, the defending champions carried their momentum into their second fixture, securing another victory against Tanzania to make it two wins from two in the group stage. The back-to-back triumphs place Ghana firmly in control of their group as they push to retain their continental crown.
Attention now turns to their final group game against Burkina Faso, a fixture that will determine their final standing heading into the knockout phase. With confidence high and form on their side, the Black Damsels appear well-positioned to continue their title defence in dominant fashion.
Ghana entered the tournament as reigning champions, and early indications suggest they remain the team to beat.
