The Black Princesses beat the Falconets 3-2 in the first of the two-leg series at the at the Accra Sports stadium with goals from Florence Dadson and Elizabeth Addo condemning their Nigerian opponent.

Coach Sackey says he will assess players on the periphery in the second game against their opponent.

“I think we played well but we need to work on some few shortfalls before the World Cup,” Sackey said

“I will use the players who did not the get the chance to play in this game. It is important we assess every player and give everyone an equal opportunity,”

“This friendly will serve as a good preparatory ground for us.”

The two teams will represent Africa at the forthcoming FIFA Under-20 Women’s World Cup in Japan next month.
