Accra: Head coach of the Black Princesses, Charles Sampson, stated that his team has gained valuable insights from their comeback victory against Uganda in the ongoing U-20 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.

According to Ghana Web, Sampson expressed that the team's performance revealed certain weaknesses that need to be addressed. 'We've learned a lot from this game.

Sampson praised the team's resilience and fighting spirit but underscored the necessity for improved concentration, particularly at the start of matches. 'The character was there, the girls showed they can respond under pressure, but we need to start games better and stay focused throughout,' he stated, pointing to the need for sustained focus in upcoming games.
He further noted that the match against Uganda serves as a significant learning experience as the team continues its preparations. Sampson stressed that enhancements in organization and decision-making will be vital for success in future encounters.
