The Ghana U-20 female team, Black Princesses preparations towards the upcoming world cup qualifiers has hit a snag after the Confederation of African Football (CAF) postponed the qualifiers due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The continental football governing body announced the postponement of the FIFA U-20 World Cup Qualifiers slated for September this year.

The postponement was due to the travel restrictions by countries on the continent due to the coronavirus pandemic.

However, the Black Princesses preparations ahead of the qualifiers seems to be over after CAF announced postponement of competition despite Coach Yussif Basigi handing call-ups to 31 players to commence preparations last Friday, August 14.

Ghana’s Black Princesses started preparation in March before traveling to participate in an International Women’s Day friendly with Morocco where they impressed with their stunning performance.

However, the team was forced to break camp due to the Corona Virus pandemic.

The Black Princesses was supposed to take on Guinea Bissau on Friday, September 4 in an away encounter before meeting in a week’s time for the return match.

But CAF directives proves Ghana will have to wait for another date to honour the qualifiers.
