The Black Princesses of Ghana have bowed out of the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup after being humiliated by the Netherlands in the final group D game.
Ghana went into the game knowing the only way they would progress to the next stage is by beating Holland with a goal margin of six.
However, it was the Europeans who took the lead in the 28th minute through Liz Rijsbergen and held on till the first half of the game.
The Dutch doubled their lead right after recess through Ziva Caroline Henry but Ghana pulled one back immediately from a beautiful strike from Doris Boaduwaa to keep hopes alive.
Liz Rijsbergen grabbed her second of the game in the 65th minute before Marit Auee netted from the spot with six minutes remaining to seal victory for the Dutch.
In what was a group of death, Ghana have failed to progress to the second round of the FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup for the sixth time running, this time around not recording a single points as they lost all three group games.
